One good reason for the strong aftermarket industry growth in recent years can be seen in the age mix of light vehicles. Those vehicles in the 11+ year old category now comprise almost 47 percent of total light vehicles (up from 40 percent in 2006). This segment’s compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.23 percent far exceeds the average for all light vehicles with a CAGR of just 0.29 percent. It is this analysis that helps to explain how the industry can sustain growth in the face of rising gasoline prices and flattening miles driven.
