ADME commentary

The ADME angle

The Australian Government's recognition of safer vehicles as a key contributor to reducing road trauma is a clear indication that safety features will become a major selling point for vehicles in the Australian market.

This shift in focus towards safety will likely influence consumer purchasing decisions, with buyers prioritizing vehicles with high safety ratings and advanced safety features.

What it means for stock and ordering

Dealers who stock vehicles with high safety ratings will be better positioned to meet changing consumer demands and capitalize on the growing importance of safety features.

The Mid-term Review of the National Road Safety Strategy 2021-2030 provides a clear direction for the industry, and dealers who adapt quickly to this changing landscape will be more competitive.

Impact on marketing and lead handling

Dealers should adjust their marketing strategies to highlight the safety features of their vehicles, and train their sales staff to effectively communicate the benefits of these features to potential buyers.

By emphasizing safety, dealers can differentiate themselves from competitors and attract safety-conscious buyers, ultimately driving sales and revenue growth.

Taking action

This week, dealers can review their current stock and ordering processes to ensure they are prioritizing vehicles with high safety ratings, and begin developing marketing campaigns that showcase the safety features of their vehicles.
