Description

The automotive retail sector consists of the revenue accrued from sales at auto dealers, gas stations and retailers of auto components. The auto dealers market
consists of new and used passenger cars, as well as light commercial vehicles, sold through car dealerships or auction-houses within the country. It does not include
sales of motorcycles or vehicles over 3.5 tons GVW. The service stations market is comprised of fuel retailing, forecourt shop sales and car wash revenues, but excludes food service and other non-fuel sales outside the shop and car wash. Auto components comprise automotive parts and accessories and tires and rubber.
Automotive parts and accessories reflect only the aftermarket sales value. Similarly, the tires and rubber is composed of the replacement tire market for passenger cars and light trucks, and excludes sales to OEMs. All market values are given at retail sales price (RSP), and include all relevant taxes and levies.
