The average age of light vehicles in operation in the U.S.
reached a record of 12.1 years earlier this year, as more than 279
million vehicles were recorded in the U.S. fleet, according to
research from IHS Markit, a world leader in critical information,
analytics and solutions. The increase in average age will further
drive vehicle maintenance opportunities from an increasingly aged
vehicle fleet, as the influence of new technology continues to
impact the repair community.
Decreased new vehicle sales due to COVID-19 and subsequent
inventory challenges due to the global microchip shortage, as well
as high scrappage rates in 2020, contributed to the average age
growth last year, though 2021 scrappage rates are normalizing
somewhat given increased used vehicle demand in 2021, and vehicles
in operation are climbing. Older vehicles in the fleet continue to
provide a robust business pipeline for aftermarket companies - from
parts manufacturers, distributors and retailers to service and
repair facilities - and dealerships are working to increase service
lane traffic while inventory levels are low.
According to IHS Markit research, average vehicle miles traveled
(VMT) for light vehicles in 2021 is expected to reach 12,355 miles
for passenger cars and light trucks, after a significant drop in
VMT during the pandemic in 2020. The return of miles traveled
toward normal volumes further underscores the robustness of the
opportunity for repair and maintenance.
