Traffic performance of passenger cars; kilometers, Territory 1990-2020

This table contains figures on traffic performance (vehicle-kilometres) and average annual mileage of passenger cars divided by vehicle age, ownership situation and fuel type. Vehicle-kilometres and the average annual mileage of Dutch passenger cars are broken down by Dutch vehicles on Dutch territory and Dutch vehicles on foreign territory. In addition, there are figures of the total distance travelled on Dutch territory. A distinction has been made in terms of kilometres travelled by Dutch and foreign vehicles. The vehicle population for which kilometres are estimated is based on statistics on the motor vehicle fleet. The population of the figures in this table is based on the old method of selection of the motor vehicle fleet. The difference between the old and the new selection method is described in a method report, see point 4. The range of kilometres estimated on the basis of the old vehicle population runs until the reporting year 2020. The series based on the new population is available as of reporting year 2018. The way in which the mileage is estimated has not changed, only the population. The figures for the reporting year 2020 have been corrected for the smoothing effect of the method by means of a correction factor. This smoothing effect flattens the annual variation in the figures. This gives a distorted picture of periods in which mobility suddenly changes drastically, such as in 2020 as a result of the coronavirus crisis. Data available from: 1990 to 2020 Status of the figures: The figures up to 2019 are final and the 2020 figures have provisional status. Changes as of 10 November 2022: None, this table has been discontinued. This table is followed up by the passenger car traffic performance table; kilometres, fuel type, territory, see paragraph 3. When are new figures coming? No longer applicable.
