How will vehicle automation and electrification affect the automotive maintenance, repair sector?

Automation and electrification in road transport are trends that will influence several economic sectors of the European economy. The automotive maintenance and repair (M&R) sector will experience the effects of such transitions in the long term. This paper assesses the research in the road transport to derive the factors that may influence the M&R demand based on Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) and Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) uptake.
