Get the full picture of Europe’s truck movement and freight activity.
European truck activity is diverging sharply by market, with Central Europe's kilometres expanding steadily through the decade while Western Europe's activity proves more volatile.
Vehicle Miles Driven (Vehicle Kilometres Travelled, VKMT) has become a core measure for transport professionals, quantifying fleet utilisation, infrastructure demand, and sector growth directly from vehicle movement.
With this dataset, you can:
- Identify regional opportunities and growth markets across Central and Western Europe
- Compare a fleet's registered activity against where it actually operates, by country
- Benchmark performance across all 26 European markets covered
- Anticipate demand shifts driven by regulation, trade flows, and infrastructure investment
Truck VKMT Europe is Astutus Research's dataset for European truck movement, covering both where fleets are registered and where they drive.
