A Record Achievement for the Mexican Automotive Market

Mexico has hit an impressive milestone, reporting a staggering 35.1 million vehicles currently on its roads. According to a recent study conducted by Integrate Data Facts (IDF), this number reflects not just a statistic, but a growing trend that underscores the expanding demand for automotive products and services across the nation.

Spanning models from 1961 to 2025, IDF's comprehensive analysis covers various types of vehicles including cars, vans, SUVs, medium trucks, and heavy-duty trucks, giving us an insightful look into the dynamics of the automotive sector in Mexico.

Key Findings from the IDF Study

• - Total Operating Vehicles: 35.1 million
• - Light Vehicles (Cars and Light Trucks): 34 million
• - Medium and Heavy Trucks: 1.1 million
• - Vehicle Classification Breakdown:

- 57% passenger cars
- 34% trucks
- 6% vans
- 3% medium and heavy trucks

• - Average Age of Vehicles: 16.2 years, slightly up from 16.1 years in 2023.

The increasing average age of vehicles on the road has significant implications for the automotive aftermarket. Older vehicles typically require more frequent repairs, parts replacements, and general maintenance, which translates into substantial business opportunities for companies servicing the Mexican market.

Evaristo García, CEO of IDF, comments, "The average vehicle age of 16.2 years signifies a large population of vehicles needing constant repairs and maintenance. This situation creates strong demand for replacement parts and automotive services, ensuring the continued mobility of the Mexican populace."

With the recent uptick in trade tariffs, these 35.1 million operational vehicles on the roads will still require essential resources like fuel, spare parts, maintenance, and tires. It is crucial that automotive aftermarket firms address and effectively support the needs of this expanding market, which is vital for the ongoing advancement of the country amid this record vehicle count.

"With 35.1 million vehicles in operation, the aftermarket parts market plays a pivotal role in Mexico’s ongoing progress," Evaristo adds.
