Vehicle kilometres goods vehicles; kilometres, vehicle weight 2001-2020

This table contains data on total vehicle kilometres of goods vehicles in the Netherlands (broken down by Dutch and foreign vehicles) and data of total kilometres and average annual kilometres of Dutch goods vehicles (broken down by Dutch and foreign territory). All figures are further broken down by lorries and road tractors, by years of construction of the vehicle and by gross vehicle weight. The vehicle population used to estimate the kilometres is based on the vehicle fleet statistics. The population of the figures in this table is based on the old selection method of the vehicle fleet. The difference between the old and the new selection method is described in a methodological report, see paragraph 4. The data series of vehicle kilometres estimated for the old population ends with 2020. The data series based on the new population is available starting from 2018. The way in which the vehicle kilometres are estimated has not changed, only the population. For the 2020 data a correction factor was implemented to correct for the “smoothing effect” caused by the method. The smoothing effect Smoothes out yearly variation in the data and these results in a distorted picture of periods of time when mobility patterns suddenly change Drastically, like happened in 2020 due to COVID-19. Data available from: 2001 to 2020 Status of the figures: Definite data are available for 2001 to 2018, and provisional data for 2019 and 2020. Changes as of 10 November 2022: None, this table has been discontinued. This table is followed by the table Vehicle kilometres goods vehicles. kilometres, vehicle weight, territory, see paragraph 3.
