ADPA Newsletter: Key EU Developments for the Independent Aftermarket
Summary
The February 2026 edition of the newsletter from Automotive Data Publishers Association (ADPA) provides a comprehensive update on political and regulatory developments shaping the future of the independent automotive aftermarket in the European Union.
From access to technical information and in-vehicle data, to electrification, safety, digitalisation and cybersecurity, 2026 is set to be a pivotal year for the sector. Several legislative processes are advancing simultaneously, with potential long-term implications for market structure, competition and operational access to vehicle data.
For the Carmunication community, these developments are particularly relevant, as they directly affect the conditions under which independent operators can continue to innovate, compete and deliver safe, sustainable and affordable mobility.
