The EV tipping point is almost here and the timing is right for a pivot in automotive retail. Interest in electric cars has tripled since 2018<\/a> and, with gasoline prices surging, demand can only climb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pandemic also changed expectations when purchasing a car. It is expected that online retail will account for approximately 25 percent of new car sales by 2025, up from less than five percent before the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, consumers have indicated they still want a dealer experience \u2013 on their own terms. They also want access to digital channels throughout the entire purchase cycle, and are increasingly moving to a European purchasing mindset<\/a> where a reservation is made and it is fun to wait for a new vehicle to arrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ZeroLight<\/a> is already opening options for dealers. Its real-time 3D visualizations, cloud rendering, and data insights provide understanding of customer behavior and preferences to help support the customer journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Capgemini is working with OEMs and its partners to design a North American agency model that delivers a seamless customer journey and is a \u201cwin-win-win\u201d for the OEM, franchised dealer partners, and customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
