The automotive repair and maintenance market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1469.64 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the growing sense of sustainability, growing vehicle failure rate and cost-benefit associated with repairing old vehicles, increasing government regulations for automotive waste management, and higher purchase cost of automotive vehicles. Major trends in the forecast period include adopting predictive maintenance solutions in vehicles, implementing enhanced safety features, integrating advanced technology in their services, implementing big data analytics tools in companies' operations to enhance their real-time operations, and focusing on mergers and acquisitions to increase revenue and market share.
Automotive service providers in repair and maintenance are increasingly integrating diagnostic tools into customer vehicles, enhancing their service offerings. On-board diagnostics tools serve to monitor vehicle conditions and proactively identify potential issues by conducting diagnostic assessments. For example, Koovers, a car maintenance services provider, incorporates an onboard diagnostics tool for its registered customers. When the tool reports an error, Koovers' call center promptly contacts the customer, facilitating necessary repair work. This proactive approach enables garages to anticipate required parts for servicing, thereby reducing wait times significantly.
The expanding automotive industry is anticipated to drive substantial growth within the automotive repair and maintenance market. This sector encompasses a myriad of organizations engaged in vehicle design, development, manufacturing, marketing, sales, and upkeep. Automotive repair and maintenance services play a crucial role within this industry, ensuring the sustained functionality, safety, and durability of vehicles. For instance, data released in May 2023 by the European Automobile Manufacturers Association revealed a notable 5.7% surge in global motor vehicle production in 2022, totaling 85.4 million units compared to the previous year. Consequently, the burgeoning automotive industry remains a key driver propelling growth within the automotive repair and maintenance market.
Automotive repair and maintenance service companies are increasingly incorporating artificial intelligence-powered automated vehicle inspection technology to streamline vehicle inspections. These systems capture images of the vehicle from various angles as it enters the inspection cabin, then upload them to a central computing system. This system compares the images against established standards to detect any deviations, generating a report that highlights issues and recommends necessary actions. For example, in January 2024, Amazon, a US-based tech company, launched its own AI-powered Automated Vehicle Inspection (AVI) technology. This innovative system uses advanced AI to identify potential anomalies in delivery vans, ensuring fleet safety and reliability. Through a partnership with UVeye, the AVI technology automates inspections to detect hard-to-spot issues, such as tire defects. It gives fleet managers comprehensive insights, enabling them to monitor recurring issues, enhance route safety, and prevent potential breakdowns on the road. Designed to scale, the AVI technology supports safety across Amazon's extensive delivery network, which processes over 20 million packages daily.
