BOVAG and RAI Association expect van sales to remain low in 2026, although a slight recovery is visible.
According to BOVAG and RAI Association, 2026 will be another tough year for van sellers. Demand for vans remains low, reports autoreview.nl based on a joint forecast by the two organizations.
Still, there is some recovery to report. Van sales in 2026 are expected to pick up slightly compared to 2025, but remain well below the level of previous years.
The persistently low demand is attributed to economic uncertainty and changing mobility needs. BOVAG and RAI Association advise sellers to prepare for a prolonged difficult market.

For sellers, it is smart not to wait; the residual value of diesel vans is under pressure.
