Pava Mobility Tech Sector Report Q1 2025

Dealer Management Systems: Revolutionizing Automotive Retail

In our Mobility Tech Sector Report Q1 2025, we explore Dealer Management Systems (DMS). As dealerships face challenges with fragmented systems and inefficient workflows, integrated DMS solutions are emerging as crucial transformation tools.

Key trends include:

  • Unified Operations: Integrated DMS platforms combine CRM, digital documentation and other essential tools, cutting transaction times by 15+ minutes and saving 40 hours monthly.
  • AI & Machine Learning Integration: Modern DMS platforms leverage AI to generate sales forecasts, analyze customer behavior, and automate lead management – enabling smarter decisions and personalized experiences.
  • Cloud-Based Adoption: The shift from on-premise to cloud-based DMS continues to accelerate, providing greater scalability, real-time data access, and reduced maintenance costs.
  • Process Automation: Routine dealership tasks like service scheduling, inventory tracking, and invoicing are increasingly automated, reducing errors and freeing staff for high-value customer engagement.
  • The European DMS market remains highly fragmented with increasing M&A activity as consolidators seek geographic expansion and technology integration.

Our report also highlights significant market movements: Micro-Mobility is bucking the downward trend with moderate gains, while Automotive Software & Data faced the strongest corrections.
