On our most recent trip to China, it was interesting to see how the world's largest country of powersports manufacturing is viewing the gas to electric worldwide movement. On day three, we toured what just a few years ago was one of the larger producer of gas scooters in China. The entire factory has now been converted to produce gas generators and electric bicycles. Not a single gas scooter was spotted. 

While touring the parts department of this factory, all of the shelves had pictures of all of the scooter parts that used to be housed there, click here to see! The pictures were still up but the parts were long gone. On the shelves were tens of thousands of dollars of electric bicycle parts. One by one, factories are switching from gas vehicles to electric. It's important to realize that these are the factories that are producing the scooters for the world to sell. Over the next several years, the electric movement will continue to grow stronger, so it's important that your dealership understand and adapt. We aren't suggesting you get rid of gas products, but start representing electric bicycles, electric golf carts, and electric scooters. Start growing the electric market in your city - be on the forefront of the future of the powersports industry!
