ADME commentary

The ADME angle

Avatr and Nevo's impending arrival with plug-in hybrids and range-extender EVs will put pressure on other brands to accelerate their own electrification plans

Competitor Response

Deepal, as a sister brand, will likely face the most direct competition from Avatr and Nevo, and may need to reassess its own PHEV/EREV strategy

The Changan group's decision to introduce these models in Australia suggests a high level of confidence in the local market's ability to support EV and hybrid sales

Showroom Traffic and Stock

Dealers can expect increased showroom traffic from customers interested in these new models, and should ensure they have a solid understanding of the technology and benefits to effectively communicate with potential buyers

The introduction of Avatr and Nevo's plug-in hybrids and range-extender EVs may also lead to increased stock complexity, as dealers will need to manage a wider range of models and technologies

Pricing and Margin

Pricing will be a key factor in the success of these models, and dealers should be prepared to negotiate and provide competitive offers to customers

One decisive action dealers can take this week is to review their current EV and hybrid offerings and develop a strategy to effectively compete with the incoming Avatr and Nevo models
