Tips for Starting a Ev Vs Gas Business in Ohio
- EV inventory allocation from manufacturers is tied to your state's ZEV mandate status. Dealers in ZEV states get more inventory. Period.
- Charging infrastructure in your area determines EV demand. Check PlugShare for the local charging density before stocking inventory.
