ADME commentary

The ADME angle

Australian dealerships can now reduce the upfront costs of installing EV chargers and acquiring electric vehicle tools, making it more feasible to service and sell EVs.

This development can lead to increased showroom traffic as customers become more confident in the ability of dealerships to handle their EV needs.

What it means for stock and ordering

Dealers can now stock a wider range of EV models, knowing they have the necessary tools and equipment to service them, which can lead to increased sales and revenue.

The availability of rebates for EV chargers and tools can also influence pricing and margin, as dealers can factor in the reduced costs when determining the prices of their EV models.

Competitor response and marketing

Dealers who take advantage of the rebates can gain a competitive edge over those who do not, by marketing their EV capabilities and attracting customers who are looking for dealerships that can handle their EV needs.

Taking action

This week, dealers can review their current EV capabilities and apply for the rebates to install EV chargers and acquire the necessary tools and equipment, ensuring they are well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for EVs.
