Digital Revolution in the Aftermarket, Online Platforms Reshape Parts Circulation

Category: Company News

The automotive parts aftermarket is undergoing a profound digital transformation. While the traditional "auto parts city" model still exists, the rise of online B2B and B2C platforms is significantly improving the efficiency and transparency of parts circulation.

Platforms like Alibaba's "Caichebao" and JD.com's Auto Mall integrate resources from distributors and repair shops nationwide, offering integrated services for parts inquiry, quotation, ordering, and logistics. For repair businesses, this means faster access to scarce parts and reduced inventory costs. For consumers, platforms like Tuhu and天猫 Car Care provide genuine parts, transparent pricing, and installation services.

Furthermore, big data and AI are being applied to predict part failure rates and demand, enabling more precise inventory management. Blockchain technology is also being explored to track part origins and combat counterfeit products. Digitization is not only optimizing transactions but also reshaping the entire value chain from production and distribution to repair services through data-driven insights.
