Table explanation


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.

Data available from: 2001

Status of the figures:
Definite data are available for 2001 to 2015, and provisional data for 2016 and 2017.

Changes as of 12 November 2019
None, this statistic will not be continued. Relevant tables are mentioned under point 3.

When will new figures become available?
Not applicable, this statistic will not be continued.

Description topics

Kilometres in the Netherlands
The total distance travelled (in km) in the Netherlands by vehicles with a Dutch registration plate and vehicles with foreign registration plates.

Since 2001, Statistics Netherlands conducts an extensive annual survey based on odometer readings (see section 4 in the table notes, which includes a link to the survey description). Since 2001, data are therefore rounded off to the nearest 100,000 kilometres and are thus available in more detail than in prior years.
Kilometres by foreign vehicles
The total distance travelled (in km) by foreign vehicles in the Netherlands.
