 Circana has announced the winners of its seventh annual Automotive Aftermarket Performance Awards.

The awards are presented at the Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) in Las Vegas, Nov. 4-6, 2025.

These awards honour brands that achieved the highest gains in United States market share across key segments of the aftermarket and tire industries.

Circana determined winners in the categories of accessories and appearance; chemicals, additives and fluids; maintenance and repair; and core tires using its Retail Tracking Service, which gathers sales data from a diverse panel of retailers, including automotive specialty, mass market, tires, e-commerce, and more.

“The Automotive Aftermarket continues to demonstrate remarkable resilience in the face of economic headwinds, remaining one of the strongest performers among general merchandise industries tracked by Circana,” said Steve Flavin, president of Circana’s automotive practice. “As consumer behaviors evolve, the brands recognized this year have shown exceptional agility and commitment — earning their place among the industry’s top growth leaders.”
