ROMA (ITALPRESS) – In March, according to data from the Centro Studi e Statistiche Unrae, the industrial vehicle market recorded an increase of 12.8% with 2.541 registrations compared to the 2.252 recorded in the same month of 2025.
The segment of heavy vehicles of 9 tons shows a positive trend, marking a +15.7% on a monthly basis – mainly driven by tractors (+36.2%) – in the face of a decrease of tanks of 9.6%.
Increasing also the fleet of light vehicles up to 6 tons (+2.1%), while the means with mass between 6,01 and 15,99 tons flettono of 3,9%. Since the beginning of the year, 7.534 new vehicles were registered, with an increase of 6% compared to the first quarter of 2025, which had registered 7.106 registrations.
“The first quarter of the year closes with a positive result, supported by the dynamics of heavy vehicles and, in particular, road tractors. This is an encouraging signal that must now be consolidated through a rapid implementation of the extraordinary fund for the renewal of the park, which can finally offer a more structured and stable framework also in a medium-long period perspective, accompanying continuously the investments of the enterprises”, says Giovanni Dattoli, president of the industrial vehicle section of Unrae.
“In this regard, Unrae continues a constructive confrontation with the Institutions and the entire supply chain, while at the same time reasserting the indispensable need to guarantee companies a clear and lasting regulatory framework. We believe that the transition cannot be supported by episodic incentives, but it requires structural measures, certain times of implementation, the overcoming of the logic of click day and a concrete acceleration in the development of infrastructure for alternative fuels and high-power charging,” Dattoli continues.
Unrae expresses its appreciation for the recent interventions promoted by the Government on the reduction of excise duties, aimed at containing the effects of the international crisis on energy prices. “In the definition of industry support policies, we believe it is essential to adopt a pragmatic approach that enhances the set of solutions available for decarbonization and introduces suitable tools to make vehicles at low and zero emissions more competitive, starting from energy costs and tolls. It is necessary to combine environmental sustainability, operational efficiency and economic balance, in line with the complexity of applications and contexts of use. Only in this way will it be possible to favor the renewal of a park still too old, to achieve the long-term environmental objectives and to strengthen the safety of the transport goods”, concludes Dattoli.
