Traffic performance passenger cars, fuel expanded, age 2015-2020

This table contains data on traffic performance (vehicle-kilometres) of Dutch passenger cars, divided by fuel type and the age of the vehicle. The table also shows the total number of vehicle kilometres travelled by all passenger cars and an average per vehicle. The table also shows the number of passenger cars in use, this is not a stand figure but the number of vehicles that may have driven on the road during the reporting year. These are active vehicles, vehicles that have failed (due to export or demolition) and vehicles that have been in the company stock. 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 paragraph 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. Because of this smoothing effect, the annual variation in the figures is flattened. 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: 2015 to 2020. Status of the figures: The figures in this table for 2015 to 2019 are final and those for 2020 have provisional status. Changes as of 10 November 2022: None, this table has been discontinued. This table is followed by the table Traffic performance passenger cars, fuel expanded, age. See paragraph 3. When are new figures coming? Not applicable.
