The “smart” way of approaching future mobility – electric, digital and fully connected
Times are changing and so are OEM distribution models. Faced with the need to transition to electric vehicles and the growing trend towards new, digitally arranged usership, smart decided to take a leap of faith and reinvent its mobility business model from the ground up to future proof its growth. This has meant carrying out a complete overhaul of its customer journey, using a digital first approach and embracing the transition away from classical long-term ownership models towards mid- and even short-term usership. This fireside chat will delve into the details around this pivotal change in smart’s development.

Why sustainability matters – right now!
A no brainer, right? Wrong. We all agree that sustainability is important, but “being” sustainable is a totally different matter. It means reinventing how you run your business. It means adapting to new rules, new requirements, new products, new expectations and keeping operations running smoothly in the meanwhile. There are, however, ways to make it happen; you just need to be resourceful and ready to explore new options… And given the megatrends we’re seeing, this is just the beginning.
With John Saffrett, Deputy CEO of ALD Automotive
When energy prices are skyrocketing: buckle up and keep your TCO on track
Gasoline and diesel prices are reaching new records day-by-day and electricity is rapidly following suit. “Fuel” has always been the second most important factor in a vehicle’s overall cost, but in such an unprecedented context, efficiently running a mixed fleet of ICE, hybrid and battery electric vehicles is a real challenge. Rest assured, there are ways to reclaim control and get that energy cost equation right. How? It starts by optimizing your TCO.
