2024: Growth of the volume of the Russian car services market to ₽1 trillion

The volume of the car services market for passenger cars in Russia in 2024 reached ₽1 trillion. These data were presented by the analytical agency Avtostat in January 2025. The total amount includes services for maintenance, repair, car wash, tire assembly and body work, covering statistics from 69 Russian regions, where 97% of the country's car fleet is concentrated.

According to Avtostat, the most significant contribution to the market structure was made by maintenance and repair services, the total volume of which amounted to ₽594,2 billion. Of these, official dealers provided only 8% of the market (₽47,3 billion), while independent service stations (service stations) accounted for 38% (₽225,3 billion). The remaining 54% were services performed by car owners or private mechanics, the volume of which is estimated at ₽321,6 billion.

The segment of highly specialized services such as car washes, tire fitting and body repair also took a significant share. In 2024, the volume of the car wash market amounted to ₽177,7 billion, tire fitting - ₽39,7 billion, and body repair - ₽190,8 billion.

Agency experts distinguish a significant dependence of the market on geographical features. The main data for the analysis were collected from large cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg, as well as from regions with high fleet saturation rates.

In addition, the research methodology took into account the preferences of car owners to choose car services. According to the results of surveys conducted in 2024, a significant part of motorists prefer independent service stations, including points of narrow specialization.

Analysts also noted an increase in market potential associated with an increase in the number of cars in warranty service. The average volume of services sold per official dealer for a separate brand was calculated without taking into account the cost of spare parts and consumables, which made it possible to more accurately assess the economic efficiency of the segment.^[1]
