  • AI is penetrating every industry these days, including automotive remarketing.

  • As EV adoption continues to rise, particularly among mixed-energy fleets, remarketers face significant challenges as they navigate market volatility, declining residual values, and uncertainties due to political shifts. However, despite these headwinds, there are notable success stories of strong retention rates and high sales throughput. This panel will discuss the key drivers behind these success stories and why remarketing EVs demands a different playbook compared to traditional ICE vehicles.
