This year at AADA2025, the AADA youX Feature Panel Session dives straight into the heart of the transformation with:
“AI, Automation & The Future of Automotive Retail”
Hosted by industry icon Wade von Bibra, this powerhouse session is where bold ideas meet real-world relevance. From streamlining service centres to redefining the role of sales teams, we’re exploring how AI and automation are reshaping every corner of the dealership – and what that means for your business.
AI as Your Best Salesperson?
Explore how smart tech is changing customer engagement – from chatbots to personalised finance offers. But where does the human touch still reign supreme?
The Dealership of the Future
Discover what the dealership model looks like in a tech-first world. Spoiler: It’s not about replacement – it’s about reinvention.
Who Owns the Customer?
With OEMs and AI platforms vying for control, how do dealers protect their most valuable asset: customer relationships?
AI in Fixed Operations & Aftersales
Predictive maintenance, intelligent inventory, fraud detection – AI’s impact goes far beyond the showroom floor.
Finance Gets Smart
F&I is going digital. But how do we keep it compliant, personalised, and efficient – all at once?
Data-Driven or Data-Drowning?
Learn how to cut through the noise and use AI to drive real results, not just reports.
This isn’t a sales pitch… It’s a raw, insight-rich session built for franchised dealerships navigating the tech revolution.
And it’s designed to help you stay essential – and successful – in the face of disruption.
Don’t just watch the future. Shape it. Join us at 10:30AM, Wednesday 23 July.
