Here's what to expect:
The automotive aftermarket is facing a structural turning point. What was long regarded as the auto industry's stable profit machine is increasingly being redistributed by electrification, ADAS, software-defined vehicles, the growing independent aftermarket, and new regional supply chain realities.
Our new EY-Parthenon study analyzes how these developments are changing aftermarket volumes, revenues, and margins — across markets, business areas, parts categories, and scenarios. With our proprietary model "Aftermarket Intelligence Edge", we make visible which value pools are coming under pressure, where new opportunities are emerging, and which strategic levers OEMs can use to actively secure value across the vehicle lifecycle.
The publication marks the start of a broader analysis of the global aftermarket. In-depth studies on Europe, US, and China will follow, offering market-specific insights into future aftermarket dynamics and concrete implications for OEMs.
