Autobooks Drives the Future: $40M Funding Fuels Innovation in Vehicle Maintenance and Repair Solutions

Autobooks is thrilled to announce a major milestone in our growth journey with a successful funding round in which we raised R40,000,000. For over 20 years, Autobooks has been a trusted provider of maintenance and repair information across South Africa, supporting vehicle owners by demystifying the repair process for everything from cars and motorcycles to tractors and more. This recent infusion of capital not only validates our business model but also accelerates our mission of keeping South Africans on the move with reliable, step-by-step guidance for vehicle maintenance and repair. At the heart of our offerings is the renowned Haynes repair manuals, widely recognized for delivering clear, actionable instructions that empower users to tackle a range of repairs, from simple maintenance tasks to more complicated issues. Alongside these manuals, we also offer HaynesPro Workshopdata for workshops, which comprises comprehensive technical and electrical information tailored for South African vehicles. For mechanics in training, our Haynes All-Access software provides an extensive collection of online manuals paired with detailed how-to videos—an essential resource for both apprentices and experienced technicians alike. The fresh capital will be strategically deployed to expand our digital platforms and enhance the reach of our dependable repair solutions. This investment will also allow us to innovate further in digital content delivery, ensuring that automotive professionals and everyday vehicle owners receive the best in class support. As we move forward, Autobooks remains committed to empowering every South African motorist, driving not just better repairs, but a culture of self-reliance and technical excellence on the road.
