A more normal motor retail market has returned after the record profitability of the post-Covid years. Car dealerships are redoubling their focus on customer experience and can use the data now available to them to make well informed decisions. But rising costs, higher interest rates, new market entrants, agency model and regulatory changes are creating a shifting landscape. Overlay this with the march of AI, which has the potential to reshape staffing and operations and retailers need to look further ahead than ever before.

The sector is having to rethink how it operates to embrace the transition to electric vehicles, what this means in terms of the relationship between manufacturers and dealerships and the impact on staff, servicing and used car sales. All while managing the day to day running of the business and ensuring a seamless customer experience across digital platforms and in-person.
