Garage franchise in Madrid
We compare the eleven garage franchises accepting openings in Madrid against official local market data: 4,099,529 cars, 11,832 vehicle sales and repair businesses and 346 cars per business, versus a Spanish average of 285.
Which garage franchise to open in Madrid?
Madrid has more cars per workshop than average, which leaves room to open from scratch without fighting for every customer. Look first at Madrid and Móstoles, where the population is concentrated, and compare who brings you customers from day one.
Investment, entry fee and royalty for the eleven brands are the same across Spain, so we do not repeat them for every province: they are in the full garage franchise comparison. What changes from Madrid to another province is the market, and that is what we analyse here.
The garage market in Madrid, in figures
Madrid is Spain's largest aftersales market: the capital plus a metropolitan ring of towns over 100,000 inhabitants such as Móstoles, Alcalá, Fuenlabrada, Leganés or Getafe. The low-emission zone and high incomes in the north speed up the arrival of hybrids and EVs, and competition between workshops is intense everywhere.
Of the 179 municipalities in Madrid, Madrid alone holds 49% of the population. Among the 50 provinces, Madrid ranks 16 for cars per inhabitant, 4 for cars per sector business and 50 for the share of cars with no environmental label.
The ratio of cars to sector businesses works in your favour in Madrid: 346 cars per premises, 21% more than in Spain overall. The fleet is younger than average: only 14.4% of cars have no environmental label (Spain: 22.7%), which favours scheduled servicing and electronics work. Electrification is ahead: 19.0% of cars carry a ZERO or ECO label, above Spain's 8.4%, so high-voltage training pays back sooner. Diesel weighs less than in the rest of Spain (44.0% versus 51.1%), with petrol and hybrids gaining ground in the workshop.

The Dasercars territory in Madrid: exclusivity for 1-2 workshops

In Madrid, 19.0% of cars carry a ZERO or ECO label (Spanish average: 8.4%) and 4.3% are electric or plug-in hybrids with a ZERO label, according to the DGT. It is a market already asking for high-voltage-ready workshops.
