The imposition of COVID-19 safety norms had reduced leisure expenditure among the masses, which, in addition to the increased semiconductor chip shortage due to supply chain bottlenecks, resulted in a scarcity of new automobiles, significantly pushing the lifespan of existing vehicles. The sales of SUVs, crossovers, and electric vehicles (EVs) have witnessed an upward trajectory in recent years. The higher repair costs associated with these vehicles have created a pool of opportunities for industry participants to harness this increasingly growing potential of expanding customer base and delivering improved products at lower costs. These factors, coupled with the rapid technological advancements in automobile technology and surging eCommerce trends, will improve the overall customer experience, increasing the automotive repair and maintenance services market share in the years ahead.

Based on a recent study by Global Market Insights Inc., the global automotive repair and maintenance services market size is likely to exceed USD 953 billion by 2028.

Listed ahead are some crucial factors positively influencing the industry landscape.

Surging demand for commercial vehicles

The emergence of industrial development across many developing economies has fueled the demand for commercial vehicles in recent years, which has resulted in the adoption of strategic moves like collaborations, mergers, acquisitions, etc., by key industry players. 

To cite an instance, recently, in April 2022, Tata Motors allied with VRL logistics to deliver 1300 commercial vehicles comprising medium, heavy, intermediate, and light commercial vehicles to increase the latter's fleet efficiency.

The increasing usage of these vehicles for performing heavy cargo logistic operations across several industry verticals requires timely upkeep, which may foster the automotive repair and maintenance services market outlook.

Tires and wheels repair and maintenance services to bring lucrative growth

The demand for tires and wheels is chiefly driven by the increasing production of two-wheelers and commercial vehicles to fulfill the surging logistic requirements across the rising eCommerce industry. As per the U. S. Tires Manufacturers Association report 2021, the overall shipments for replacement tires, comprising passenger, light truck, and truck, reached almost 264 million in 2021 compared to nearly 255 million in 2020, experiencing a growth of about 3%. 

These optimistic numbers, in line with the increased life span of these vehicles, indicate that the global automotive repair and maintenance services industry size from the mechanical segment will observe an increase in the times to come.
