The ADME angle

The absence of a Type-2-to-Type-2 charging cable plug holder that fits the male end of the cable going into the house is a significant oversight in the EV charging ecosystem, and Australian dealers should take note of this gap in the market.

This gap in the market presents an opportunity for dealers to offer a solution to customers, potentially increasing customer satisfaction and loyalty.

What it means for customer experience

Dealers who can provide a solution to this problem will be seen as more customer-centric and willing to go the extra mile to meet their needs.

The lack of a plug holder for the male end of the Type-2 cable going into the house can lead to damage to the cable and the charging point, resulting in costly repairs and replacements.

Impact on aftersales revenue

By offering a solution to this problem, dealers can also generate additional revenue through the sale of accessories and repairs.

Dealers should investigate potential solutions to this problem, such as sourcing a third-party plug holder or working with OEMs to develop a proprietary solution.

Taking action
