Buick US Dealers Required To Invest $300,000-$400,000 To Sell EVs via insideevs.com
Buick plans to have an all-electric lineup in the US and Canada by the end of the decade, and dealers will be essential to the success of the brand's shift to EVs.. Now, Buick has revealed more details about the requirements its dealers will have to meet to be able to sell EVs., Buick spokesman Sean Poppitt said dealers who choose to stay with the brand will need to invest at least $300,000 to $400,000, on average, to sell its future EVs.
"Acceptance of an offer is voluntary, but all Buick dealers who remain must be adequately prepared to sell and service Buick EVs," Poppitt said.says its dealer network will remain"a critical part of the retail and relationship chain with customers," but it will allow those dealers who do not share the brand's all-electric vision to exit now"on an elective basis before investment in essential training, tools, and special equipment is required.
Buick declined to reveal the number of dealerships that have chosen to take the buyout offer to date."Any dealer who wants to discuss this program is strongly encouraged to contact the Buick team," read the statement. The brand had 1,963 US dealerships at the start of 2022,' Dealer Census shows. Only 13 of those are standalone dealerships; the rest are paired with at least one other GM brand.
