Parker: Digital Platforms Solve Problems Unique to Used EV Sourcing

DealNow.com co-founder and CEO Brad Parker says technology will play a critical role in helping auto dealers source quality used EVs, a sometimes daunting prospect given the myriad challenges unique to the segment.
In an exclusive to DealerELITE, Parker notes EVs are subject to “volatile pricing and limited availability” in the auction lanes, forcing dealers to consider new options to maintain a diverse used car inventory.
“This is where new technology platforms that connect auto dealers with private individual sellers can play a new role, modernizing the way dealers acquire inventory and offering a more stable and advantageous alternative to traditional wholesale channels,” Parker writes.
