Increasing Automobile Sales Globally
Over the course of the past ten years, worldwide sales of automobiles have increased significantly. The surge can be associated to innovations in technology as well as a surge in disposable income among individuals, particularly in developing nations.
For example according to a recent survey by published by the European Automobile Manufacturer Association the global car sales have increased by around 9% in the first three quarter of 2023.The Europe market witnessed sales growth of 20.4% from January to September in 2023 . Similarly, the Russia and Ukraine markets also experienced recovery after a substantial decline in 2022. In North America, car sales increased by 15.5% despite high inflation and rise in interest rates. In the Asia-Pacific region, particularly in Japan, sales increased by 17.8% despite the semiconductor shortage in 2022. Moreover, the India automobile market grew by 8.8% due to introduction of new vehicle models, rise in disposable income among consumer , and increased inclination of people towards personal mobility. Likewise, the South America market witnessed a stable growth rate during the same time as compared to other regions. The global automobile sales are linked to increase in governments inclination to push consumers toward buying electric vehicles by providing tax benefits and subsidies. Also, many countries globally have introduced vehicle scrapping policies, which include replacing old vehicles to lower CO2 emissions emitted through them. The growth of automobile sales globally is positively creating the need for more maintenance and services; thus, driving the demand for automobile garage equipment.
Increase in Vehicle Complexity and Advancement in Automotive Garage Equipment
Todays automobiles are becoming more complex due to implementation of modern technology, development of functionality & design, and increasing complexity of vehicles. Similarly, modern automobiles also utilized high end sensors and computer operated hardware and electronics.
Regulatory bodies globally have enacted certain laws pertaining to lower emissions from vehicles, increasing safety and overall performance of automobiles. Similarly, modern vehicles are equipped with ADAS, emergency braking, hybrid powertrains, autonomous driving, enhanced infotainment system, and others technologies. These new technologies integration make automobile more complex further creating demand for sophisticated garage equipment for their regular maintenance work.
Moreover, rapid advancement in garage equipment technology enabled system developers to integrate cutting-edge artificial intelligence and data analytics technology to enhance garage equipment efficiency and functionality. Likewise, in recent decade there has been increase penetration of predictive maintenance in vehicles for real time diagnostics and remote monitoring. Likewise, there is increasing inclination of consumers and fleet operators towards regular maintenance to ensure longevity and performance of vehicles. Thus, increase in vehicle complexity is creating more demand for regular vehicle maintenance and servicing, thus driving the automotive garage equipment market trends.
Volatility in Prices of Raw Materials
Raw materials prices specifically for iron, steel, plastic, special alloys and other materials required for manufacturing of automotive garage equipment, are seeing constant fluctuation in their prices. Likewise, there are limitations on sourcing of these raw materials. Automobile garage equipment includes heavy machinery such as lifts, diagnostics tools, and others, that require steel, iron and other metals to manufacture. The constant fluctuation in price of these raw material resulted in increasing overall cost of the overall equipment. Fluctuation in price of these raw materials have strong impact on production cost and profit margins ultimately hampering the growth of the automotive garage equipment market demand. Additionally, the shortage in raw materials resulted in delay in production of overall equipment and affect manufacturers, distributors, and end-users, thus hampering the entire supply chain.
