The garage equipment market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The garage equipment market has seen strong growth in recent years. It is expected to grow from $7.96 billion in 2024 to $8.7 billion in 2025, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.3%.
The growth is attributed to the continuous need for technician training on new technologies, growth in the luxury and high-performance vehicle market, changes in legislation, vehicle parts and systems standardization, and increased vehicle imports and exports.
The garage equipment market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The garage equipment market is expected to reach $12.26 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 9.0%.
Growth will be driven by the influence of insurance policies on vehicle repairs, infrastructure development, changing consumer expectations for faster service, the expansion of vehicle warranty services, and partnerships with original equipment manufacturers. Key trends include advanced driver assistance systems, IoT integration in garage equipment, the adoption of telematics systems, advances in 3D printing, and the development of smart workshops with automated tools.
The growing popularity of electric vehicles is expected to drive the growth of the garage equipment market. Electric vehicles, powered by batteries, are becoming more popular due to reduced greenhouse gas emissions and less dependence on fossil fuels compared to traditional vehicles. Specialized garage equipment is needed for maintaining and repairing EVs, ensuring their proper function and long lifespan. According to the International Energy Agency, global electric car sales reached nearly 14 million in 2023, marking a 14% rise from the previous year. This growing demand for EVs is driving the growth of the garage equipment market.
