A DEEPER DIVE - The Road Ahead to Prepare Workshops for the Electric Revolution
The automotive industry is undergoing a significant transformation as governments around the world prioritise sustainability and environmental preservation to become net zero in the future. A notable milestone in this shift is the UK government's announcement to ban the sale of new petrol and hybrid vehicles by 2035.
Even though the date has been pushed back five years, this doesn't change the fact that the industry will still transition to EV and Hybrid vehicle technologies in the future. Today, EV and Hybrid vehicles are already rolling past your workshop doors every day, these vehicles will typically have a manufacturer warranty on average of three years and are more likely to then go to an independent garage for servicing and maintenance over main dealers.
As more consumers opt for environmentally friendly vehicles, independent garages must adapt to the changing landscape to stay relevant and thrive. As this deadline draws nearer, independent garages must prepare for the electric revolution by equipping their workshops with the necessary equipment to service electric (EV) and hybrid vehicles.
Check out the article linked below where we will delve into the reasons why independent garages should be proactive in adapting to the changing landscape of the automotive industry.
