After nearly a decade of building, shipping, and pushing the limits of what an auto parts company can be — we're ready to introduce the next chapter.
Capital Auto Parts is becoming Autrex.
Why the Change?
We didn't set out to just sell auto parts. We set out to build the most capable, most tech-forward automotive distribution operation in Canada. And somewhere along the way, "Capital Auto Parts" started to feel too small for what we were building.
We've built our own AI-powered ERP from scratch — replacing $35,000/year in software. We're importing 30+ containers a year from Asia. We've opened locations in Winchester and Ottawa, with Cornwall coming in Summer 2026. We're on track for 7 locations by 2030.
The name needed to catch up.
What's Autrex?
Autrex is the evolution of everything Capital Auto Parts built — with a brand that reflects where we're going, not just where we've been. Tech-first. Canada-wide. Built different.
- Same team, same locations, same commitment to fast shipping and guaranteed fit
- New platform built from the ground up for speed and accuracy
- Expanding across Canada — 7 locations by 2030
- Private label brands: Bremex (brakes), Tectonic (chassis), Krypton (wheels)
What Happens to This Site?
Capitalautoparts.ca will redirect to autrex.ca when the new platform launches. All your orders, history, and accounts transfer seamlessly. Nothing changes for you — except the experience gets better.
