The flow of used vehicles won’t stop, even as the shift in powertrain becomes ever more pronounced. This presentation will explore the speed of that shift, and how to prepare for the upcoming flood of EVs.

With a variety of carrots and sticks, the EU is a major contributor to the electrification effort. But does Europe’s vision extend to the Remarketing industry? And what should that vision be for an industry that is increasingly a cross-border one?

Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) will become more and more relevant for the remarketing industry. While the market today is still distorted from governmental incentives, and buyers of new and used BEV might not yet represent an average of the buying communities, it is clear that BEV must perform as used cars to keep their residual values. One of the most important subjects is the trust into the status of health (SOH) of the battery. Different methods exist how to measure it, but none is the unique right or wrong. The CARA workgroup “Battery Health” has the goal to define an industry standard Battery Certificate and validate processes how to determine the battery health within standard vehicle return and remarketing processes. During the presentation, CARA will present the workgroups goal and plan for 2022. It will elaborate the openness to technologies to evaluate the SOH and the wish to define an universal battery pass standard for the industry.

Remarketers know how to inspect, defleet, transport, store and remarket used ICE vehicles. What are the differences for EVs, how great are they and how will they influence the outcome?

How digital & AI powered costed inspection is going to revolutionize the Car Buying process.

Who are the finalists for the 2021 Fleet Europe Summit Remarketing Award? Sven van Rossum, Innovation Director at Nexus Communication, will reveal all, together with ProovStation, sponsors of the Award.

These days, sourcing used cars is a challenge. Ancillary services are valuable tools to maximise sales. This session will explore some of the best ideas and best practices.

OEMs always try to shorten the trade cycle. This makes Trade Cycle Management all the more important. This session will examine how various flexible contract types can increase the number of transactions.

Refurbishment must be efficient and effective for it to have a positive impact on the outcome. This session will explore the latest refurbishment techniques.

This session will also provide some concrete examples, deep-diving into some results and case studies that show refurbishment can be a seamless process with a positive outcome.

This session will examine the specificities of the B2B market for LCVs, exploring opportunities and best practices.

Then, we’ll examine the B2C segment, formulating recommendations on how to maximise results.
