Beschreibung
This study provides a profound insight into the spare parts market for timing belts, water pumps and V-belts. All three products are closely linked. Finally, mechanical water pumps are integrated into either the timing belt or the V-ribbed belt drive. In which one they are integrated ultimately depends on whether the vehicle has a timing belt at all – or if it is driven by a timing chain instead. According to our estimates and discussions with industry experts, two-thirds of current vehicles are equipped with a timing belt. Due to this close link between the three products, it makes sense to look at their spare parts market as a whole.
The study provides answers to the following questions:
- at what frequency are timing belts, water pumps, and V-belts replaced?
- what factors are decisive when a change occurs?
- what differences exist in the exchange behavior and volume in this product group between free (mechanics) workshops and authorized workshops?
- how important are kits in this segment?
- which are the most used brands in this product area?
- average prices based on a selection of Top sellers
- at what prices are timing belt kits purchased from the workshops in the classic distribution?
- at what prices are timing belt kits offered on the internet?
- at what prices are timing belt kits including installation sold to the end customer?
- What is the market volume for timing belts, water pumps, and V-belts in Germany?
These and many more questions are answered by the new study by Wolk after sales experts "The market for timing belts, water pumps and V-belts in Germany".
In December 2017, about 150 free (mechanics) workshops as well as 50 authorized workshops were interviewed about their exchange behavior of the mentioned products. On a total of 110 pages of continuous text, the study provides a profound insight into this market.
