Report Overview

全球mobile car wash service market sizewas valued atUSD 5.84 billion in 2022and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.5% from 2023 to 2030. Due to increased awareness about regular vehicle maintenance, consumers seek convenient solutions to keep their vehicles in good condition. As a result, mobile car wash services are majorly preferred by consumers as they offer the convenience of professional car cleaning and detailing at the customer’s preferred location, saving time and effort compared to visiting a physical car wash facility. This is likely to drive the market growth over the forecast period. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the market. The pandemic heightened the demand for mobile car wash services as consumers preferred their vehicles to be washed at home or office.

A rise in internet penetration is increasing the demand for on-demand services including on-demand/mobile car wash services. With increased internet penetration, consumers can easily access online platforms or mobile apps offered by mobile car wash service providers. The convenience of online booking appeals to busy individuals who value time-saving solutions, likely driving the growth of the market. For instance, according to the data published by the World Economic Forum, in August 2022, over 98% of the population aged between 30-49 years in the U.S. are Internet users. Due to the absence of enough car wash facilities in developing countries, including India, Cambodia, and Mexico, the majority of vehicles are manually cleaned.

Moreover, in areas where traditional car wash facilities are scarce or not easily accessible, on-demandcar wash servicesprovide a convenient solution. Customers can have their vehicles cleaned at their preferred location, whether it's their home, office, or any other convenient spot. This eliminates the need to travel to a car wash facility, saving time and effort, likely driving the demand for mobile car wash services. The water scarcity along with extreme climatic conditions has led to a rise in the demand for sustainable mobile car wash services. Many mobile car wash services are adopting waterless cleaning techniques or using eco-friendly cleaning products. Waterless car wash solutions reduce water consumption significantly, addressing water scarcity concerns and minimizing environmental impact.

For instance, according to a study conducted by the World Resources Institute (WRI), in January 2021, the top ten countries that would face a water crisis by 2040 include UAE, Saudi Arabia, Palestine, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, and Kuwait. Thus, the government of these countries promotes the recycling of water and sustainable technology for car wash. These factors are anticipated to drive the market growth. Furthermore, the growing trend of subscription models in the market is anticipated to favor the growth. The subscription model offers customers the convenience of regular services without the need for repeated booking and scheduling. Customers can set up a recurring subscription plan that automatically schedules services at specified intervals, such as weekly or monthly. This ensures that their vehicles are consistently maintained and cleaned without the hassle of individually booking each service.
