Economic conditions and road transport costs - October 2025

Changes in road transport costs over one year:

  • The cost of diesel continues to trend downwards, at –7.7 % for the TRM and –8 % for the TRV.
  • Other costs (wages, vehicle financing, insurance, etc.) are rising faster than general inflation, at around +2.5 % for the TRM (averaged across the various activities studied) and +3.3 % for the school TRV.

As far as the French economy is concerned, stakeholders remain cautious, and growth for 2025 is stagnating at +0.7 per cent year-on-year (Q1 to Q3).
