    The Future of Electric Vehicles Is a Part of Your Future Too

    Manufacturers are rapidly deploying new electric vehicle, or EV models, and dealership staff need to be knowledgeable to close those deals and support EV adoption. Now is the time to get up to speed on EVs.

    Electric vehicles are already here. You see them in almost every community. Their adoption has grown rapidly over the past decade, and it’s only speeding up. It is predicted that by 2030:

    • 29.5% of all new car sales will be electric (up from ~3.4% in 2021)
    • $4.7 million in sales annually (up from just over $500,000 in 2021)

    Are you ready for the electrification revolution? And are you excited to be a part of it? NFPA® wants to help you say “yes” to both of these questions. That’s why we’ve created customized online learning all about electric vehicles and the impact they may have on you, your business, and your community.

    Key Topics About EVs
    This course will help you understand the true costs and benefits of EVs. And it will also help address some of the common concerns and myths:

    • Upfront costs: Is the purchase worth the investment?
    • Range anxiety: How far can you really go without worrying?
    • Charging challenges: What are the three charge types and the evolving infrastructure?
    • Safety: What are the risks and what safety features are built in?
    • Life of ownership: Do the savings outweigh the costs over time?

    The course features videos and expert testimonials to give you the latest information in the electric vehicle landscape.

    How Will EVs Impact Dealerships?
    In addition to important general information about EVs, this course provides specific knowledge relevant to those who work at EV dealerships. Electric vehicles have many of the same features as conventional vehicles, so making the switch isn't complicated. However, as a salesperson, you are one of the first points of contact for people considering an EV purchase. Helping consumers understand what to expect from EV performance and ownership experience is critical to your success.

    Key Topics for Salespeople

    • Video testimonial from industry peers
    • Conversations with customers when they have questions or safety concerns
    • How EVs and their systems have been designed to protect occupants and others in the event of a crash or other emergency
    • Find the right fit: activity to match the consumer with an EV that meets their needs
