ADME commentary

The ADME angle

The growth of EV charging infrastructure in high-density areas like apartments and car parks is a crucial step towards increasing EV adoption in Australia, and dealers should be prepared to capitalize on this trend

EV Charging Infrastructure Expansion

The pay-per-use model developed by the Australian start-up could provide a convenient and cost-effective solution for EV owners who do not have access to private charging facilities, potentially increasing the appeal of EVs to a wider range of buyers

This, in turn, could lead to increased demand for EV models, particularly in urban areas where high-density living is more prevalent, and dealers should ensure they have a sufficient stock of EV models to meet this demand

Impact on Sales Strategy

Dealers should also consider the potential impact of this development on their sales strategy, particularly in terms of marketing and lead handling, as EV buyers may have different needs and preferences than traditional car buyers

The fact that the platform targets strata buildings, short-term rentals, and car parks suggests that the start-up is focusing on providing solutions for EV owners who do not have access to private charging facilities, and dealers should be prepared to offer similar solutions to their customers

Actionable Steps

One decisive action a dealer could take this week is to research the EV charging infrastructure available in their local area and consider partnering with providers like the Australian start-up to offer convenient and cost-effective charging solutions to their customers
