The 2024 forecast data for the European number of petrol motor coaches, buses, and trolley buses shows significant variance across different countries. Poland leads with 4.1 thousand units, while nations such as France and Slovenia register minimal values at 0.001 thousand units. Poland (-0.1%), Moldova (-0.73%), and Czech Republic (-1.3%) show slight negative growth, whereas the Netherlands (9.56%) and Albania (9.86%) present positive year-on-year changes. Countries like Switzerland (-32.55%) and Bosnia and Herzegovina (-18.02%) display sharp declines. Over the last five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reveals considerable fluctuations.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of transitioning to electric and hybrid vehicles, which could significantly reduce the count of petrol-based vehicles. Legislative changes and environmental regulations are expected to accelerate this transition across Europe. Countries with high negative variations and low base numbers might shift quickly, impacting the overall European figures. Notably, the growth in countries like the Netherlands may continue as they adopt innovative public transportation solutions.
