Legislative Changes Propel 123fahrschule SE for Growth

123fahrschule SE is set to benefit from recent amendments to learner driver training regulations in Germany, as analyzed by NuWays AG. The introduction of online theory and driving simulators presents significant growth opportunities for the company. The Federal Ministry of Transport announced that from 2026, driving schools could reintroduce online lectures. This shift could save resources and increase operational efficiency. Notably, 123fahrschule plans to implement a mix of in-person seminars and online courses, offering students greater flexibility.

The use of driving simulators also promises advantages for 123fahrschule. The simulators will allow students to train with manual gearboxes, reducing the need for switchgear vehicles, and potentially saving €0.4 million in EBIT annually. Furthermore, this change addresses instructor shortages and enables higher lesson frequencies. A lower operational cost than traditional methods may allow 123fahrschule to offer competitive pricing, enhancing its market position against local competitors.
