A successful battery electric vehicle (BEV) transition cannot succeed without a thriving, stable second-hand market and right now, that market is under serious pressure.
That’s why the BVRLA brought together over 30 companies from across the automotive ecosystem to send a clear, unified message to government: “it’s time to back the used electric vehicle market with targeted, pragmatic support”.
The BVRLA also has a podcast series diving deep into the world of used BEVs. With expert voices from across the sector, these episodes explore the challenges, trends, and opportunities shaping the market today. More episodes will follow, but members can catch up with the first two now.
