Even before the disruption brought on by COVID-19, the automotive industry was already encountering numerous changes including the onset of electric mobility, driverless cars, and ride sharing. But, the COVID-19 crisis has introduced another set of challenges, such as managing a remote workforce, remote customers, contactless transactions, slumping sales, and massive layoffs.

These combined challenges make it difficult to anticipate a positive future. Many are asking, what will the next normal look like?

Well, it will be full of opportunities. The notion of quietly resuming the practices of the past has quickly faded away. The future will focus on new ways of communicating, and commerce will require new models, innovative tools, and fresh processes to succeed.

How will businesses succeed in the next normal?

Consumers are no longer strangers to online research and shopping. Even after automotive dealerships were temporarily shut down at the beginning of COVID-19, and unemployment was at its highest, people were still looking to buy. According to Google data, the search for car sales has grown globally by over 60% year over year, and searches for best car under have grown globally by over 80% year over year [1].
