ICDP open webinar: Car buyer of the future report 2025

ICDP open webinar: Car buyer of the future report 2025

This will be a special, open, webinar outlining the findings from our Car Buyer of the Future report, wherein we explore how car buyers behave today, how we expect this will evolve over the next decade, and what actions OEMs and dealers should be taking to better adapt car buying journeys to consumer needs. We will outline how the industry sits behind outdated myths, neglecting the reality of consumer behaviour, and how we see these trends and other external forces such as the evolving role of technology shaping how consumers buy cars in the future.

This webinar, and the accompanying Car Buyer of the Future report, are both free and open to ICDP members and non-members alike.

If you would like to attend, please send an email to projectoffice@icdp.net and a Zoom invite will be sent to you.

Webinar: IAM Update

Webinar: IAM Update

Although ageing car parcs are lucrative for independent IAM players, independent repairers and service chains, they need to adapt to cope with the current and future aftermarket.

During this webinar, we will review the evolution of the different types of mechanical repair and maintenance players in Europe: independent repairers which are either part of a multibrand franchise, service chains, etc. or not.

We will also analyse the role of franchisors in the development of specific skills and service offers linked to electrification, access to fleets, the sale of maintenance contracts, ‘green’ mobility, and niche market segments such as classic cars etc.

Finally, a qualitative analysis will be presented focused on of how both repairers and customers react to these specific ‘labels’ and offers". 

If you would like to attend, please send an email to projectoffice@icdp.net and a Zoom invite will be sent to you.

ICDP open webinar top 300 European dealers

The numbers are now in!  As the final data has become available, we have just updated our Top 300 dealer group ranking for Europe.  This identifies by name 300 of largest dealer groups (including combined distributor/dealers) in Europe.  It includes data on the brands they represent, the European markets or regions within which they operate, and the data or our best estimates on turnover and sales volumes.  We will share insights into the profile of this elite ranking, the changes since the first edition of the Top 300 last year, and our thoughts on how this is likely to evolve.  For anyone planning a network or targeting a B2B sales effort in the dealer world, this is invaluable information.  The ranking and an accompanying commentary are available to buy now (special rates apply to ICDP members) and this webinar is open to both members and non-members.

If you would like to attend, please send an email to projectoffice@icdp.net and a Zoom invite will be sent to you.

Webinar: Used BEVs

During this webinar, we will present the quantitative and qualitative results of the first phase of our 2025 research on used-BEVs, covering the major European markets, plus Norway.

The presentation will be structured around 4 main topics:

  1. An analysis of the current used BEV market features, in terms of sales volume, age, channel, finance schemes… Where relevant, a comparison with the Norwegian market (current status, historical trends) will be made;

  2. A review of the OEM specific strategies and labels developed to support used-BEV sales in their networks;

  3. The impact of the regulation – dedicated incentives (if any), impact of LEZ on used car powertrain mix etc. – will be covered as well;

  4. Finally, the specific needs, worries and attitudes of end-customers regarding the purchase of used-BEVs will be reviewed, via the analysis of ICDP own data and existing reports on the topic.

A short session on the trends regarding used-BEVs prices and stock levels will close the webinar, setting the scene for the second phase of the research (to be presented in October )

If you would like to attend this webinar, please send an email to projectoffice@icdp.net and a Zoom invite will be sent to you.
