The road freight sector is widely recognised for its operational efficiency, offering fast, reliable, and cost-effective solutions to its customers, including shippers and freight forwarders. In today’s evolving economic and regulatory landscape, there are both opportunities and challenges in managing and optimising these costs. The total cost of ownership (TCO) serves as a valuable tool to help inform operators and shippers’ strategic investments.
This IRU Intelligence Briefing combines a TCO analysis with a CO2 emissions assessment of different technologies in Spain across the vehicle’s first life, based on current national conditions. .

- Consultants looking for expert, sector-specific insights – including methodology and assumptions – to strengthen client recommendations and validate internal scenarios
- Policy makers who need reliable transport data to understand local decarbonisations dynamics and guide national policy
What is it for?
- Choose the right powertrain: Understand total costs in Spain over six years to make informed purchasing decisions
- Compare real-world costs: Evaluate all components of TCO in Spain, including fuel, tolls, registration and ownership fees and taxes, vehicle price, usage costs, inflation, and tyres.
- Support sustainability goals: Select the cleanest fuel options in Spain to reduce emissions and contribute to Scope 3 targets
- Anticipate policy shifts: Factor in national tolls and regulations to understand the six-year cost impact of owning a truck in Spain
