Future Car Market Overview – SMR March 2019

Download PDF(Popups must be enabled)

Welcome to our re-named overview, previously known as the ‘gold book SMR editorial’. The content and layout has not changed, but any customer suggestions for improvement would be appreciated: e-mail  andrew.mee@cap-hpi.com

Following our acquisition of Derwent Management Services in 2014, cap hpi Ludlow (Derwent) data has been used to populate our SMR budget forecast product since October 2014, but there have been no technical changes to any of our data files or services. 

As we expected, the new data represented a considerable improvement in terms of vehicle coverage compared to our previous external supplier, with more than 4,200 additional cars and LCVs being valued at implementation. Overall Car coverage is 100%, with many of the vehicles valued in gold book for the first time also included in the SMR data.

The new budgets are based on our market leading Burn Rate data and incorporate the latest probability distributions for all elements, based on real world costs. In our opinion, it reflects a much more realistic representation of the likely future SMR expenditure than we were able to display in the past.

For any further detailed questions, please e-mail smr@cap-hpi.com and we will respond as a matter of urgency.
