Abdul Chowdhury, head of vehicle policy at the government\u2019s Office for Zero Emission Vehicles, heads the list of speakers at the Vehicle Remarketing Association\u2019s (VRA) member meeting for this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He will provide an update on workstreams supporting the used electric vehicle (EV) market at the event, which takes place online at 10am on Thursday 27th April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There will also be a panel discussion looking at the current situation regarding used vehicle supply featuring Phill Jones, chief operating officer at eBay Motors Group; Greg Smith, Commercial Director at Carshop Supermarket; and Michael Tomalin, CEO at both City Auctions Group and PurpleRock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
VRA chair Philip Nothard said: \u201cUsed EVs continue to be among the most-discussed topics in remarketing, and being able to hear directly from someone such as Abdul at the centre of government thinking is sure to be fascinating, especially following the recently-issued environmental policy document and EV Mandate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe\u2019re also looking forward to hearing the panel discussion on used vehicle supply. This continues to be a difficult area for our members with as yet no obvious end to the issue in sight. It\u2019ll be interesting to get views from a range of people deeply involved in this area to get their views about current and likely future developments.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
April\u2019s online event will be followed by an in-person member meeting on Thursday 25th<\/sup> May at a location yet to be confirmed. Further details about attending VRA meetings can be obtained by emailing info@thevra.co.uk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
