In 2023, the road freight volume of equipment and material utilized in good transport in Germany stood just over 17 million metric tons. From 2024 onwards, the forecast indicates a slight but steady decline in volume, reaching 16.69 million metric tons by 2028. This represents a modest decline, with year-on-year decreases averaging at approximately 0.3% between 2024 and 2028.

Future trends to watch for:

Technological advancements in logistics could streamline operations and influence volume handling capabilities.
Environmental regulations may drive shifts toward more sustainable transport methods, affecting road freight volumes.
Economic fluctuations impacting manufacturing output could alter demand for equipment and materials transport capacity.
