Shoot us a Text.Episode #1071: In today's episode, we unpack April's surprising EV registration drop, spotlight top dealership strategies driving service and parts growth, and break down a fresh consumer sentiment boost that still comes with caution.Automotive News' Top 100 Service and Parts Dealer Groups show that there's no single path to growing service and parts revenue—but that tailored strategies, tech investments, and a laser focus on training can deliver huge results.Murgado Automotive boosted revenue 45% by empowering service directors and emphasizing speed, transparency, and convenience.Holman's 48% increase stemmed from employee training, technician retention, and use of myKaarma software across all stores.Kunes Auto Group drove a 33% bump through acquisitions and leveraging DealerFenix to standardize metrics and processes.All three groups focused on increasing customer-pay work, tire sales, and throughput efficiency.“It's all the little things that add up to the big things later on,” said Murgado CEO Mario Murgado.Top 10 - Autonation, Penske, Lithia, Hendrick, Asbury, Group 1, Sonic, Morgan, Holman, OurismanOther friends - 13 - McGovern, 27 - Ciocca, 33- RML, 35 - Bergstrom, 44 - Premier Automotive, 47 - Walser, 66 - Sam Pack, 69 - CMA, 74 - RohrmanFor the first time in over a year, U.S. electric vehicle registrations fell in April. While some brands like Chevrolet saw gains, overall adoption continues to hit a ceiling amid consumer hesitation.EV registrations dropped 4.4% year-over-year to 97,833, marking a 6.6% market share.Tesla saw a 16% decline, with major drops in Model Y and Cybertruck registrations.Chevrolet more than tripled its numbers, led by strong demand for the Equinox and Blazer EVs.S&P's Tom Libby notes the EV segment is hitting a “demand ceiling” around 5,000 units/month per model.“There's a lot of influences working against EVs right now,” Libby said, citing charging concerns and wavering government support.After half a year of sliding confidence, American consumers are feeling a bit more upbeat. A new report shows a sizable sentiment jump in June—but lingering doubts about the broader economy are hard to ignore.According to the University of Michigan, consumer sentiment rose 15.9% from May to 60.5, the highest level since December 2024.The increase was across age, income, region, and political affiliation, with expectations for both short and long-term business conditions seeing the steepest gains.Analysts credit a perceived easing of tariff pressure and slowing inflation for the positive shift.However, consumer sentiment, opinions on current economic conditions, and consumer expectations for the future are all still down YoY“Despite this month's notable improvement, consumers remain guarded and concJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Die neuen Elektromodelle deutscher Autohersteller haben eins gemeinsam: Die Batteriezellen stammen von chinesischen Zulieferern. Muss das so sein? Nicht unbedingt, sagt der Physiker Peter Lamp, langjähriger Batterieentwickler bei BMW und Vorsitzender des Industrienetzwerks Lithium-Ionen-Batterie. In Shanghai findet dieser Tage die größte Automesse der Welt statt. Unter den mehr als 100 neuen Modellen finden sich ziemlich viele ziemlich gute Elektroautos. Und auch, wenn jedes zweite der in China als „New Energy Vehicle“ verkauften Fahrzeuge noch einen Verbrennungsmotor an Bord hat, bleibt doch festzuhalten: Der langfristige Plan Chinas mit der Elektrifizierung zu einer führenden Autonation aufzusteigen, scheint aufzugehen. Eine Schlüsselrolle für den Aufbau der chinesischen Autoindustrie kommt der Batterietechnik zu. Wie groß der Vorsprung Chinas wirklich ist und wie die deutsche Industrie aufholen könnte, diskutieren wir in dieser Folge mit einem der profiliertesten Batterieexperten Deutschlands: Peter Lamp beschäftigt sich seit mehr als zwanzig Jahren mit Batteriezellen. 2008 übernahm er die Produktentwicklung für die Batterien im legendären BMW i3. Dieser Tage geht er in den Ruhestand, doch als Vorsitzender des Kompetenznetzwerks Lithium-Ionen-Batterie und als Mitinhaber eines kleinen Entwicklungsunternehmens begleitet Lamp die Branche weiterhin. Den Vorsprung der chinesischen Zellhersteller erläutert Lamp nicht nur mit der mangelnden Verfügbarkeit günstiger Rohstoffe in Europa, sondern auch mit der fehlenden Industrialisierungskompetenz hiesiger Anbieter. Die Politik müssen nun entschieden handeln und dann durchhalten, denn der Aufbau einer florierenden Batteriebranche brauche zehn Jahre. „Das ist die Krux, weil es für viele Politiker und Investoren schwer ist, sich an solche Zeiträume zu gewöhnen“, sagt Lamp. Die technische Entwicklung zielt Lamp zufolge künftig vor allem auf geringere Kosten, weil die mit heutigen Akkus erreichten Energiedichten für viele Anwendungen völlig ausreichen. Neue Technologien wie die Natrium-Ionen-Batterie könnten dazu einen Beitrag leisten. Einen schnellen Durchbruch von Festkörperakkus sieht Lamp nicht. Überhaupt solle man nicht nur auf die Zellchemie achten, sondern Innovationen in der Produktion gezielt fördern.

In the latest episode of the Brainfluence podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, then Vice Chairman of External Affairs at Royal Caribbean Group and former CEO of Celebrity Cruises. Since then, Lutoff-Perlo became Chairwoman of the Board of the Hornblower Group and serves on the Board of Directors for AutoNation, AHC Group, and Amerant Bank. Lisa's journey from a low-level salesperson to a top executive is inspiring. Her latest book is Making Waves: A Woman's Rise to the Top Using Smarts, Heart, and Courage. We covered a wide range of topics including the resurgence of the cruise industry post-pandemic, the innovative use of technology onboard, and her unique leadership philosophy. Key Takeaways: Technology-Driven Customer Experience: Lisa highlighted how the cruise industry is leveraging technology to enhance customer experiences, making everything from booking to onboard interactions more seamless and efficient. Celebrity Cruises, for instance, introduced stateroom automation—allowing guests to control their environment with just a touch of a button. Inclusive Pricing Strategies: We discussed the evolution of cruise pricing, moving towards comprehensive packages that reduce the "pain of paying." Lisa emphasized that offering choices—whether all-inclusive packages or à la carte options—caters to the diverse needs of customers, providing a more tailored and satisfying experience. Leadership and Trust: Lisa shared valuable insights into building trust and credibility within an organization. From admitting her own limitations and asking for help, to fostering a team-oriented culture, her leadership approach is all about honest communication and mutual respect.

Shoot us a Text.We're closing out the week talking about how industry titan Dale Pollak will leave Cox Auto at the end of 2025. Plus, almost all of the public groups saw F&I gross profit dip in Q3 and apparently OpenAI is building its own web browser.Show Notes with links:Cox Automotive announced Dale Pollak, founder of vAuto and a pioneer in inventory management, will leave the company at the end of 2025 after nearly 50 years of shaping the industry.Pollak will spend 2024 transitioning key relationships and continuing his influential NADA teachings.At January's NADA Show, he'll release Invested, his seventh book on vehicle investment strategy.Since founding vAuto 20 years ago, Pollak has driven innovation and success for Cox Automotive, helping dealers optimize inventory.Steve Rowley, Cox Automotive president, expressed deep gratitude: “Dale has poured himself into our company, our customers, and everything automotive for most of his life. We are very grateful for his unwavering commitment.”Five of the top six public dealership groups experienced slight declines in F&I gross profits per vehicle in Q3 2024. Group 1 Automotive was the exception, posting a modest 1% gain year over year, aided by stronger penetration rates for service contracts and new vehicle financing.AutoNation saw the sharpest decline, with F&I profits falling 6% to $2,589 per vehicle.Lithia Motors faced a 2.8% decline due to lower sales of service contracts. However, its captive finance unit Driveway Financial saw profitability rise, financing 12% of Lithia's vehicle sales.Asbury Automotive's same-store F&I profit per vehicle dropped 4.9% year-over-year in Q3, falling $108 to $2,111.Sonic Automotive posted a 3% drop and Penske saw a 1.5% dip.Jeff Lick of Stephens noted that F&I remained resilient, contrasting with the sharper spikes in new-vehicle gross profits seen during inventory shortages.OpenAI is reportedly exploring a ChatGPT-integrated browser and AI-driven search tools, challenging areas historically dominated by Google.A potential OpenAI browser would integrate with ChatGPT, enhancing conversational search experiences.OpenAI is also developing "NLWeb," a tool allowing conversational interactions on travel, retail, and real estate sites.OpenAI has hired former Google Chrome developers, signaling serious exploration of this competitive space.Google, holding 65% of the browser market and 82% of the search market, is ramping up AI in its search platform, starting with mobile changes.Google's monopoly faces scrutiny, with the DOJ seeking to force a sale of Chrome to address antitrust concerns.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email
