Trend Tracker has reported accident repair volumes for August 2021 at 86% of August 2019.
Whilst the total number of repairs in August dropped by 3,500 from July (source: Audatex UK), according to Trend Tracker it was in keeping with the seasonal trend.
In comparison to 2019, August was a better month than July, with July 2021 at 77% of 2019 levels.
Speaking during ARC360’s webinARC – The Data Jigsaw, Paul Sell, Director and Co-Owner of Trend Tracker, said, “August was busier than expected due to increased UK based holidays and an increase in the number of people commuting to work.
“With pupils returning to schools this month and more people going back to the office, we therefore predict a busy September.”
The insight forms part of Trend Tracker’s monthly data reports available to subscribers.
Meanwhile, global data provider Statista has become the latest Data and Media Partner for Trend Tracker.
Christopher Ekwuruke, Strategic Data Partnerships, Statista said, “The unique perspectives they [Trend Tracker] provides on the automotive sector will be a great addition to our source landscape.”
