ADME commentary

The ADME angle

The ability of General Motors to halve its vehicle development time has significant implications for the pace of new model introductions in the Australian market

What it means for the order bank

With development times reduced to around two years, General Motors can respond more quickly to changes in consumer preferences and competitor activity

This could lead to a more dynamic and competitive market, with dealers needing to be agile in their ordering and stocking strategies

The Corvette ZR1 example suggests that General Motors is using this technology to optimize the performance of its vehicles, which could lead to increased interest and demand from Australian buyers

Competitor response and market dynamics

Other manufacturers will need to respond to General Motors' increased pace of innovation, which could lead to a period of intense competition and innovation in the Australian market

Dealers should be prepared to handle a potential increase in customer inquiries and sales activity as a result of this increased competition

Taking action

This week, dealers can start reviewing their current ordering and stocking strategies to ensure they are prepared for the potential of more frequent model updates and refreshes from General Motors, and consider increasing their marketing and lead handling efforts to capitalize on the increased interest and demand that may result from this increased competition
