Examining the routes to aftersales value creation

Electric vehicles (EVs) are a driving force behind the current emission-reducing revolution. But the increased complexity with EVs means a commitment to dedicated aftersales service, including maintenance and repair, is key. All this is taking place against a landscape of shifting consumer preferences and the emergence of cutting-edge technologies reshaping mobility. It’s the dawn of a new era and OEMs must rethink their vehicle experience across the entire lifecycle of the vehicle, or risk sunsetting their competitive advantage. The result? OEMs need to be prepared to go the extra mile with their automotive aftermarket services strategy.
