With the increasing number of cars owned year by year, the automotive aftermarket has also been rejuvenated. As the entrance to the aftermarket, the car wash industry has developed in full swing in recent years. The number of traditional car wash stores continues to increase, and various new equipment and new models such as self-service car washes and fully automatic car washes continue to emerge, changing the original market pattern, intensifying industry competition and promoting the transformation and upgrading of traditional car washes.
So in this era of disputes and the rise of new models, where will the car wash industry go?
1. Traditional manual car washing is still in demand, but the general trend is fine washing
Nowadays, the traditional car wash model is obviously not suitable for the development of the car wash industry in the new era. People in the new era pursue the “lazy economy”, pursue more time-saving life services, pursue quality of life, and enjoy a good time.
So, will traditional manual car washing really withdraw from the market completely? The answer is “no”. Although the cost of smart car washing is lower than that of manual car washing, and the car washing efficiency is higher, the technology of car washing machines is not yet fully mature, and internal cleaning cannot be achieved.
Therefore, before the car washing machine technology matures, it still cannot replace the traditional manual car washing that has been developed for decades. Even after the technology matures, there will be a situation where the two modes of machine quick washing and manual fine washing coexist, because the uniqueness of manual car washing determines that it is difficult to be completely replaced by machines.
2. Smart car washing will become the main mode
In recent years, smart car washing has continuously impacted traditional manual car washing, and there is a trend of replacing it. The voices of badmouthing manual car washing are also one after another. It is expected that it will gradually replace the traditional extensive manual car washing within 5-10 years and become the main mode of the car washing industry.
Advantages of smart car washing equipment
As a smart car washing equipment that integrates various high-tech technologies, it has incomparable advantages compared to traditional manual car washing:
1. High efficiency and good experience, it can quickly complete the steps of identifying the car body, spraying water, foaming, wiping the car body, cleaning the foam, and air-drying the car body, reducing manual operations, improving efficiency and improving user experience.
2. Long service time and high efficiency. Since there is no need for manual garrison, it can be open 24 hours a day. When the car owner arrives at the store, when the car is washed, there is no need for any additional investment in the middle, which greatly increases the profit.
3. Convenient payment eliminates the tedious steps of change and cash, which is flexible and convenient.
4. Environmental protection, the water circulation system reduces the water consumption of car washing, saves costs, and contributes to environmental protection.
So will smart car washing occupy the mainstream of the market? The answer is obvious. With the development of the market and the upgrading of car washing concepts, the smart car washing market will become more popular in the future and become the main choice for most car owners to wash their cars. It will share the car washing market with manual fine washing.
In the future, the car washing industry will be polarized, and the market share of fine washing and smart car washing will become larger and larger, while traditional car wash shops that survive in the cracks need to adjust and transform in time.
