RCAR, or the Research Council for Automobile Repairs is an international body of insurance industry financed automotive research centres, whose objective is to 'reduce the human and economic costs of motor vehicle losses'. The primary activity of RCAR is concerned with the engineering aspects of collision repairs and training requirements associated with motor vehicles. RCAR was formed in 1972, although the company Folksam that was most influential in the founding of RCAR was involved in repair research activities since 1960.
