The automotive repair and maintenance market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The size of the automotive repair and maintenance market has seen significant growth in the past few years. A projected increase from $960.98 billion in 2024 to $1051.52 billion in 2025, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4%, is set to continue this trend.
Factors attributing to this historical growth comprise a boost in disposable income, heightened environmental concerns around electronic waste prompting businesses to recycle automotive parts, robust economic expansion in developing markets, and swift urbanization.
The automotive repair and maintenance market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the coming years, the automotive repair and maintenance market is poised for substantial expansion, projected to ascend to a value of $1469.64 billion in 2029, fueled by a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7%.
This growth trajectory for the forecast period is largely influenced by an escalating awareness regarding sustainability, an increasing rate of vehicle breakdowns, the cost-effectiveness of repairing older vehicles, intensified governmental regulations on automotive waste management, and the steep purchasing cost of automotive vehicles. Notable trends projected for this period encompass the adoption of predictive maintenance solutions in vehicles, the integration of enhanced safety features, the incorporation of advanced technology within service provisions, the utilization of big data analytical tools to optimize real-time operations, and an emphasis on mergers and acquisitions to drive revenue generation and market share increment.
Service providers in the automotive repair and maintenance sector are progressively adopting diagnostic devices to enhance their services. These devices are deployed in customers' cars for monitoring vehicle conditions and early detection of possible issues through on-board diagnostics. For example, Koovers, a firm offering car maintenance services, offers such an onboard diagnostic device to its registered customers. When this device reports an error, their call center gets notified and they reach out to the customer to undertake necessary repairs. This proactive approach allows the garages to procure necessary parts before the car arrives for servicing, ultimately cutting down on waiting time.

Companies providing automotive repair and maintenance services are increasingly incorporating AI-based automated vehicle inspection technology in their processes. These sophisticated systems take pictures of the vehicle from various angles as it enters the cabin, which are then sent to a central computer system, where they are compared with standard images to identify any inconsistencies. This gives rise to a comprehensive report outlining all detected car issues and the steps necessary to address them. For instance, in January 2024, Amazon, the U.S-based tech company, introduced its own AI-Powered Automated Vehicle Inspection (AVI) technology. This technology employs advanced AI to spot irregularities in delivery vans before they escalate to safety hazards, thus boosting fleet safety and dependability. Together with UVeye, Amazon's system automates inspections, distinguishing problems like tire faults, often difficult to identify manually. It gives fleet managers a complete view, enabling them to monitor recurring problems, enhance safe routing, and avert potential road failures. Owing to its scalability, AVI secures safety across Amazon's colossal delivery network, managing more than 20 million packages daily.
