Abstracts

It is being strongly anticipated that automotive diagnostic product demand in the US will grow at a healthy rate of nearly 6% annually, driven mainly by more electronic/electrical systems in cars, a shift towards technician-owned handheld devices and the rising influence of software over hardware. Equipment will remain dominant while software updates grow the fastest. While increased vehicle quality levels have in general reduced the demand for many automotive parts and service offerings, the number of parts of the vehicle that are serviced by automotive diagnostic equipment continues to grow, thus sustaining demand levels for this equipment.

Another factor driving growth in this market is the increasing expense of high level diagnostic equipment. Equipment costs, despite the tendency of computer-related equipment to increase in power and decrease in cost, will likely continue to grow in order for new systems to attain the needed flexibility to work with an ever-increasing variety of light vehicles in the vehicle park.
