Is the Sale of Vehicles a Dying Business Model?
However, it is clear that premium mobility will not be equated exclusively to the possession of a vehicle in the future.
This change creates a fundamental challenge for manufacturers and suppliers:
In addition to continuously improving efficiency in the manufacture of vehicles, the search for new effectiveness for the design of privileged, individual mobility has begun.
In future, the success of mobility companies could no longer be measured solely in "number of registered vehicles" and "contribution margin per vehicle", but e.g. in "Euro per passenger transport kilometer" or "Customer Lifetime Value".
Together with our engineering colleagues from IAV, we at consulting4drive work with you on the solutions to these challenges - We bring in all of our experience and our proximity to the product, which we have worked on over hundreds of projects.
What challenge are you currently facing?
