ADME commentary

The ADME angle

GM's ability to deliver 20 per cent more range for every kilowatt hour of energy is a significant advantage in the EV market, and Australian dealers should be prepared to highlight this benefit to customers

What it means for the order bank

With GM's new battery technology, dealers can expect increased interest in their EV models, which may lead to a shift in stock and ordering priorities

The improved range and energy density of GM's new battery will likely give their EV models a competitive edge in the market, potentially impacting pricing and margin strategies

Competitor response and market dynamics

Other manufacturers, including those with existing LFP units, will need to respond to GM's new technology, which could lead to a market-wide shift in EV offerings and pricing

Australian dealers should be prepared to handle increased customer inquiries and leads as a result of GM's improved EV technology, and should consider adjusting their marketing strategies accordingly

Taking action

This week, dealers can take a decisive action by reviewing their current EV stock and ordering plans to ensure they are prepared to meet increased customer demand for GM's new models
