As an important reference factor in car consumption, the sunroof is a practical auto accessory to facilitate ventilation and improve interior lighting degree. Sunroof is born with vehicles, which once was the symbol of limousine and luxurious auto configuration. Nowadays, many low-price cars are equipped with sunroofs due to its popularization.

The automobile industry developed rapidly after China joined WTO, which promoted the development of automobile accessory industry. In 2015, the output volume of automobiles was 24,503,300 in China, increasing by 3.25% YOY. Meanwhile, the sales volume reached 24,597,600 with an increase of 4.68% YOY. The growth rate of output volume and sales volume declined by 4.05% and 1.92% compared to 2014 respectively. The output volume and sales volume of passenger vehicles respectively reached 21,079,400 and 21,146,300 with an increase of 5.78% and 7.30% respectively. From 2009 on, China continuously became the world’s largest automobile producer and sales market.

The development of automobile market, especially the rapid growth of passenger vehicle market, promotes the development of sunroof market in China. The output volume of automobiles in China was merely 2.07 million in 2000. Most vehicles were not equipped with sunroofs when leaving factory, whilst merely a small quantity of automobile refit manufactories offered sunroof installation services. Based on CRI, one third of automobiles were equipped with sunroofs when leaving factory in China up to the end of August, 2016. More than half of the automobiles whose prices exceed CNY 100,000 are equipped with sunroofs. In addition, many sunroofs are installed through automobile refit factories. Although a small amount of high-end sunroofs are imported, China is self-sufficient in most varieties of sunroofs with a large number of exports. China sunroof market is occupied by foreign-funded sunroof giants such as Webasto which continually increase their production capacity. For instance, Webasto built over 10 production bases in China with the sales revenue of over CNY 5 billion.

A larger amount of domestic enterprises in China enters the sunroof industry. However, they fail to form a large scale of production capacity due to technical and financial obstacles. Most domestic enterprises in China produce limited types of sunroofs, of which the quality and after-sales quality are difficult to guarantee. Therefore, their target market mainly focuses on the low-end whole vehicle market and automobile refit market. Some domestic auto parts manufacturers enhance their production capacity and market share by purchasing foreign-funded sunroof manufacturers. In 2011, Beijing Hainachuan Automotive Parts Co., Ltd. of BAIC Motor purchased 100% stock equity of Inalfa. As the world’s second sunroof supplier, Inalfa provides products to entire vehicle manufacturers such as BMW, Benz, Land Rover, Volvo. After the acquisition of Inalfa, the self-owned brand passenger vehicles of Beijing Hyundai, Beijing Benz and BAIC Motor purchased the products of Inalfa.

According to the analysis of CRI, the output volume and sales volume of automobiles in China are predicted to increase year by year with the rapid development of Chinese economy. Meanwhile, the progressive upgradation in the product structure of automobiles, especially passenger vehicles, provides great opportunities in the development of sunroof industry. Expanding investment of enterprises such as Webasto in China proves greatly the bright prospect of the sunroof industry. The entire vehicle market and after-sales market in China offer numerous opportunities to the global sunroof manufacturers.

The automobile maintenance includes maintenance and repair. Maintenance is classified into partial, integral and deep maintenance, auto beauty as well as the replacement of consumable components, which is selected by automobile owners according to the mileage. Repair is classified into breakdown and accidental repair, which is selected according to the automobile damage.

A series of policies were published in China in recent years to break the monopoly and promote the development of the industry. The monopoly of whole-vechile manufacturers in technologies and spare part circulation systems leads to difficulties and high prices of automobile maintenance. Chinese government issued a series of policies to pave the way for the after-market automobile maintenance industry. For example, China Ministry of Communications issued Information Disclosure Management Method of Automobile Maintenance in Sept. 2015.

As one of the mainstay industries in China, the automobile industry experienced the first ten years of prime development in the 21th century. At present, the growth rate of new automobile sales volume is slump while that of the after-sales market remains high and possesses a positive prospect. The automobile reserve increased continuously with the economy and reached 184 million by Jun. 2016. The sales volume approached 24.6 million in 2015. The demand for automobile maintenance grows rapidly with the reserve, sales volume and longer average service time of automobiles in China. According to CRI, the market size of the automobile maintenance reached CNY 800 billion in 2015 with the CAGR of 14.9%, far surpassing the growth rate of the automobile industry and GDP in China.

CRI market research indicates that automobile maintenance enterprises are classified into three types including 4S, fast repair chain and traditional repair stores or factories. At present, 4S stores only provide after-sales services for authorized brands as special authorized ones of whole vehicles, which lead to scattered maintenance services and low concentration rate. Fast repair chain stores are small in number accounting for less than 1% of the total and regional without brand and scale effect spanning China. Meanwhile, traditional roadside repair shops or factories are larger in number but inferior in scale, quality and level of components and technologies than the above two types. Presently, the automobile maintenance market is at the stage of growth. It is estimated that the industry concentration rate will increase continuously.

In terms of the reserve per capita, it is estimated that over 350 million new automobiles will enter the market at the prevalence stage from 2016 to 2025, which will drive the maintenance market.

According to CRI, the average service time of automobiles exceeded five years by the first half year of 2016 and this number is increasing gradually. The development of the maintenance industry is closely related to the number of automobiles beyond warranty due to long service time, especially for those private enterprises (fast repair stores and garages). On the one hand, costs of old automobiles rise with the depreciation rate of components, unit price as well as maintenance frequency. On the other hand, the demand of owners for private maintenance enterprises will increase with automobiles beyond warranty without access to corresponding services (such as Three Guarantees) in 4S stores.
