logoU.S. and Canada Vehicle Roadside Assistance Market: Overview            

Automobile drivers are provided with roadside assistance if their car breaks down. Drivers may get onsite support from vehicle roadside assistance, such as minor upgrades, electrical repairs, and modifications, to get their vehicle back on the road. The number of aging vehicles is increasing, which is driving the growth of the vehicle roadside assistance market. As opposed to newer vehicles, vehicles older than ten years are twice as likely to become stuck on the road. When a car collapses or has a road accident, roadside assistance usually solves the issue on the spot. Roadside assistance for vehicles includes on-site small electrical and mechanical repairs, flat tire assistance, jump-start battery assistance, vehicle towing, lock-out and key replacement, and fuel delivery services for drivers. The labor and service charge rates, which are included in membership plans varies from roadside assistance services to services.

logoU.S. and Canada Vehicle Roadside Assistance Market: Growth Factors

U.S. and Canada vehicle roadside assistance market is expected to expand in the coming years. It is due to an increase in aging automobiles that are more likely to break down on the road. Older vehicles are more likely to experience any type of mechanical or electrical issues, and they require such service. Furthermore, using app-based services will result into faster response and a shorter response time for assistance.  App-based services like these are expected to drive up demand for vehicle roadside assistance. Millions of drivers around the world are affected by extreme weather, especially cold weather, which triggers electrochemical reactions in vehicle batteries, draining battery power and necessitating battery jumpstarts. Furthermore, slippery and snowy terrain in many countries creates hazardous driving conditions and increases the risk of fatal road accidents, necessitating the use of vehicle roadside assistance. Increased car purchases and registrations have resulted in a rise in road deaths and vehicle breakdowns around the world. Vehicle sales and development are being driven by lower vehicle loan interest rates, easier access to financing through personalized financial schemes, and a rise in customer per capita income. As a result, the vehicle roadside assistance market is expected to grow during the forecast period.

All services are provided by the service provider as part of a loyalty package, which is relatively inexpensive since it is valid for one year or more. However, terms and conditions vary as per different vehicle roadside assistance service providers

logoU.S. and Canada Vehicle Roadside Assistance Market: Regional Analysis

In North America, demand for roadside services is substantial, owing to adverse weather conditions in many regions, an increasing number of aging vehicles, and a preference for car manufacturers' roadside assistance. According to CNBC, 25% of vehicles in the United States are at least sixteen years old, indicating that vehicle age is at an all-time high. Citing an instance, in December 2020, Arcimoto, Inc., a manufacturer of affordable fully electric vehicles for daily commuters and fleets, announced that national roadside assistance for any Arcimoto vehicle will be available via Agero, one of the leading driver assistance services as it had entered into a partnership agreement for automotive manufacturers and insurance carriers in North America. While the vehicles are under warranty, owners of all Arcimoto vehicles, including the Deliverator, FUV, Cameo, Rapid Responder, and Roadster, will have access to Agero's national roadside assistance. In addition, the government is encouraging electrification through initiatives and incentives such as the Federal Transit Administration's Low or No-Emission Vehicle Program and Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP).
