The forecast for loaded national road freight transport volume in Germany from 2024 to 2028 shows a consistent decline, decreasing from 3.21 billion vehicle-kilometers in 2024 to 2.76 billion vehicle-kilometers in 2028. Compared to the 2023 levels, this indicates a clear trend of diminishing freight transport activity. This downward trend reflects year-on-year variations, with notable contractions observed each year. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) further illustrates this negative trend, emphasizing the industry's challenges over the next five years.
Future trends to monitor include the impact of technological advancements in logistics, emerging environmental regulations, and shifts in economic conditions which could alter demand dynamics and influence road freight transport volumes.
