OverviewAPI
European road freight spot rates have dipped below contract rates for the first time in seven years, influenced by declining industrial demand and new emission tolls. The fall in spot rates is attributed to reduced European demand, with industry analysts noting a shift in consumption levels and production adjustments. The increased costs of truck ownership and operation, including labor, maintenance, and insurance, are contributing to the rise in contract rates, impacting carrier margins.
