“At the same time, demand for car parts and service and repairs has dropped, as companies reduced their car fleets significantly. They no longer bring their cars for revisions, and have cut back sharply on maintenance costs. In a few months, this drop will be felt even more,” said Romcar officials.
A similar trend was observed for other brands, such as Renault and Peugeot, which posted an increase in the share of after sales services in total net sales, although demand declined on this segment.
According to Romcar, prices for an hour of labor have not increased in the past four months from €24, VAT not included, for both mechanics and electrical problems.
