Summary

Traffic emissions in the Netherlands dipped for the first time since COVID, falling 1.9% despite slightly more driving—thanks largely to electric cars now making up 7.4% of the road fleet. While passenger cars (58% of total emissions) saw a modest drop, vans and trucks (40%) fell more sharply due to fewer miles driven. Over the past decade, car emissions have dropped 9.1%, but commercial vehicle emissions rose as they covered more ground. Still, with a goal of cutting greenhouse gases 55% by 2030, this small win is just the beginning of a long journey.
