Abstract

Demand to grow more than 5% annually through 2011
US demand for automotive diagnostic equipment, software, services and data will rise 5.4% per year to $1.3 billion in 2011. Despite the vehicle-quality-driven slowdown experienced in overall aftermarket parts and service sales in the US, diagnostic equipment demand should remain healthy for a number of reasons. Perhaps most importantly, demand for these products is driven by the expanding role played by electronic systems in automobiles -- these systems should comprise over 45% of total vehicle value by 2016; up significantly from the 15% they represented in 2000. As a result, light vehicle electronic content and system sophistication levels continue to climb, opening new market space for more advanced diagnostic equipment.
