DON’T BE LEFT BEHIND
South Australia’s vehicle fleet is changing.
Electric vehicles made up 5.7 per cent of all new cars sold in SA in 2023.
Throw in hybrids and plug-in hybrids and all together, 16.3 per cent of all new cars sold in 2023 were zero and low emission vehicles.
There are 87 models of electric vehicles available in Australia today, with a further 32 slated for launch in 2024.
We are now at a critical tipping point where electric vehicles are leaving the early adopter phase and entering the mainstream. The opportunity to provide service, maintenance, repair and products to owners of zero and low emission vehicles is emerging as pivotal in your long term business sustainability.
The collision repair industry has witnessed this change firsthand and businesses are seizing the opportunities before them.
Customers will not always rely on manufacturer service and repair arrangements.
Used electric vehicles are beginning to take off and hybrid vehicles have well and truly cemented their place in the second-hand market.
Customers are already looking for repairers who are skilled, knowledgeable and trusted to work on their car.
Don’t be left behind in the transition to zero and low emission vehicles.
So, what is going to happen when your next customer brings in their EV or plug-in hybrid?
Let your customers know you are ready for their business.
Let them know you are MTA EV Ready.
