SMTA Launches Exclusive Autodata Membership Offering

The Scottish Motor Trade Association (SMTA) is delighted to announce a brand-new benefit for members. From today, garages and dealerships will have the opportunity to add Autodata to their SMTA membership at a reduced rate – an exclusive deal designed to support businesses in today’s fast-changing automotive industry.

Why Autodata?

Autodata is the world’s leading supplier of technical information for the automotive trade. Trusted by workshops across the globe, Autodata helps technicians work more efficiently, cut down on errors, and complete jobs faster, boosting both productivity and profitability.

The platform covers tens of thousands of vehicles, from petrol and diesel models to the latest hybrids and EVs, ensuring members can service an increasingly diverse vehicle market with confidence.

The Member-Only Offer

By through SMTA, members can unlock significant savings compared to subscribing directly with Autodata. Key features of the offer include:

• Exclusive discounted pricing available only to our members.
• Price protection for up to five years, shielding businesses from future price rises.
• Flexible payment options, either monthly via direct debit or annually.
• Simple switching for members who already have an Autodata subscription.

Members can choose from 3-year or 5-year packages, with longer terms delivering the best value and supporting business stability.

Strengthening Membership Value

This partnership reinforces our mission to encourage, promote, and protect our members. By negotiating this exclusive offer, we aim not only to reduce costs for members but also to signpost useful tools that make a tangible difference to day-to-day operations in workshops.

Alan Gall, CEO of the Scottish Motor Trade Association, said:

“This new offering with Autodata reinforces our commitment to delivering real value to SMTA members. By locking in discounted pricing for up to five years, we’re helping businesses protect against rising costs and build a stronger future.”

How to Get Started

Full details, including pricing for the 3- and 5-year packages, will be available to members from October. Whether you’re looking to streamline your workshop operations, cut costs, or secure long-term stability, this new Autodata offer provides the perfect solution.
