The number of newly registered road motor vehicles declined in 2024 according to the latest data from the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS).

KNBS in its 2025 Economic Survey revealed that the number of newly registered road motor vehicles declined by 21.4 per cent to 93,646 in 2024, but did not expressly state the cause of the decline.

Further, the report revealed that there was also a 4.7 per cent decrease in newly registered motor and autocycles, and three-wheelers to 72,868 in 2024.

The reported road traffic accidents, on the other hand, increased by 11.8 per cent to 11,173 in 2024 despite the decrease in the registration of new motor vehicles, three-wheelers, motor and autocycles.

In the 2024 Economic Survey released in November of that year, KNBS revealed that Kenya witnessed a notable increase in vehicle registrations in 2023.

Motorcycles and autocycles led the registrations with 70,691 units, with station wagons following at 61,711 units.

Vans, pickups, and lorries accounted for 12,957 and 13,635 registrations, respectively. In addition, saloon cars recorded 6,378 new entries, while three-wheelers stood at 5,760.

KNBS Economic Survey 2025

The 2025 Economic Survey further reveals that the value of output of the transportation and storage sector increased by 6.4 per cent from Ksh3.276 trillion in 2023 to Ksh3.485 trillion in 2024.

“Road transport continued to generate the highest value in the transportation and storage sector at 75.1 per cent in 2024 compared with 76.9 per cent in 2023.

The actual amount disbursed for road maintenance increased by 20.1 per cent to Ksh80.1 billion in 2023/24,” the report reads in part.

At the same time, KNBS said that the volume of freight transported via Metre Gauge Railway (MGR) increased to 1,029 thousand tonnes in 2024 from 1,001 thousand tonnes in 2023.

However, passengers transported via MGR declined by 26.9 per cent to 2,524 thousand in 2024.

Passengers transported through the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) declined by 10.3 per cent to 2,447 thousand in 2024.

In contrast, passenger revenue from SGR increased by 39.4 per cent to Ksh4,099 million in 2024, which may have been caused by the 50 per cent fare hike introduced at the start of the year.

According to KNBS, there was a 5.1 per cent rise in the number of passengers handled at Kenyan airports from 12,205,800 in 2023 to 12,831,800 in 2024.

Specifically, international passengers handled at the airports grew by 9.6 per cent to 7,282,600 in 2024.

Private courier operator outlets, on the other hand, rose by 10.8 per cent to 1,158 in 2024, while the number of licensed courier operators rose by 4.5 per cent to 348 during the review period.

Outgoing domestic letters almost doubled from 1,218,000in 2023 to 2,410,000 in 2024.

Cargo at Port of Mombasa

The total cargo throughput at the Port of Mombasa rose by 13.9 per cent to 40,986 thousand metric tonnes in 2024.

There was a 23.5 per cent increase in container traffic handled from 1,623,100 Twenty-foot Equivalent Units (TEUs) handled in 2023 to 2,004,700 handled in 2024.

Licensed small vessels increased by 60.5 per cent to 1,011 in 2024.
