GSF invests in Chinese vehicle programme as market demand intensifies

15th September 2026: GSF Car Parts, the UK’s fastest-growing motor factor, is investing in stock, technical support and training to help customers capitalise on the rapid growth of Chinese vehicle.

Chinese manufactured vehicles continue to reshape the UK car market, with recent SMMT data showing a steep rise in registrations across 2026. Chinese brands captured 15% of all UK new car sales during H1 2026, marking a 121% year‑on‑year increase.

GSF Car Parts is investing in an aftermarket supply programme for this segment of the market and is working with suppliers to ensure its customers are on the front foot when it comes to accessing critical parts.

In addition, GSF will provide customers with technical support, including a growing programme of EV training to help ensure customers can service these vehicles confidently and competitively.

Steve Horne, CEO of GSF Car Parts, said: “This is about empowering independent garages to grow through new opportunities. Workshops need reliable access to parts, data and training, and we’re committed to supporting customers as this segment expands. What we see today on the forecourt will be in garages in a few years’ time.  GSF is committed to be the strongest partner we can be to support independent garages to grasp the opportunity.”
