Key Highlights of Automotive Wholesale and Distribution Aftermarket Market

Based on replacement product, the tires segment led the market in 2024, acquiring 25.4% of the total revenue share. This is because tires are one of the primary automobile components that need to be replaced continuously due to high wear and tear.

By vehicle type, the passenger vehicles segment accounted for the largest automotive wholesale and distribution aftermarket market share in 2024. With rising urbanization, there has been an increase in the use of passenger automobiles for daily commuting. As a result, many automotive parts experience increased wear and tear, necessitating more frequent repairs and replacements.

North America dominated the global market in 2024, driven by the presence of an established automotive sector, a high rate of vehicle ownership, and a growing market for used automobiles in the region.

Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period, driven by the rapidly growing automotive industry in the region.

Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company, Cooper Tire & Rubber Company, Robert Bosch GmbH, Denso Corporation, Continental AG, ZF Friedrichshafen AG, 3M Company, Delphi Automotive PLC, Magneti Marelli S.p.A and Sumitomo Electric Industries Ltd. are a few of the key players in the market.
