AI-assisted summary of the coverage below — check the original reporting before relying on specifics.

ADME commentary

The ADME angle

The doubling of EV sales in a single quarter is a wake-up call for dealers who have been slow to adapt to the shift in consumer preferences

What it means for the order bank

Dealers who fail to adjust their ordering strategies to meet the surging demand for EVs risk being left with outdated stock and missed sales opportunities

The latest EV Index data suggests that Australian consumers are increasingly embracing electric vehicles, and dealers need to be prepared to meet this demand

Competitor response and market share

As EV sales continue to rise, dealers can expect increased competition from other brands and retailers who are also looking to capitalize on the trend

Dealers who can offer a wide range of EV models and provide expert advice to customers will be well-placed to gain market share in this growing segment

Taking action

One decisive action dealers can take this week is to review their current EV stock and ordering pipeline to ensure they are well-positioned to meet the surging demand and maximize sales opportunities
