Twelve measures outline how Europe can build a resilient automotive aftermarket during recovery from the COVID-19 period. Key aims include improving liquidity for SMEs to avert crises and enable investment, targeting support to firms crucial for EU recovery, funding responsible investments and a skilled workforce, ensuring free movement of labor and goods, and maintaining safe workplaces. The plan also promotes vehicle eco-checks to stimulate demand while advancing environmental goals, accelerates digital access to in-vehicle data, supports the circular economy, preserves competition in the aftermarket through the Motor Vehicle Block Exemption Regulation, and proposes a European Automobile Value Chain Summit to foster stakeholder dialogue on the sector’s future.
