Halifax, Nova Scotia — After a successful run in Montreal, Quebec, Collision Repair’s EV Repair Tour, supported by Fix Network, will make its next stop at the CAA Atlantic Halifax Location on October 9, 2024.
Join Collision Repair magazine, Fix Network and a lineup of expert EV speakers for a day of EV repair knowledge. At this industry-exclusive event, you’ll gather the insights collision repair industry members need to repair EVs up to OEM standards for the safety of staff and customers alike.
Repairing electric vehicles (EVs) involved in collisions is significantly more complex and hazardous compared to traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. Currently, there are over 1,900 EVs registered in Nova Scotia, and recent data indicates that the province is experiencing a rising trend in EV claims frequency, reflecting an increasing number of incidents.
As the adoption of electric vehicles grows, the automotive industry in Nova Scotia must enhance its understanding and skills in repairing these advanced vehicles to ensure safety and effectiveness in the repair process.
This free workshop aims to empower all verticals of the industry from tow truck companies to collision repairers, and auto recyclers with the expertise required to safely handle, repair and in certain cases, dispose of EVs involved in accidents. Also key to this audience are the insurance companies and brokers who manage and pay the claims.
Experts will cover topics such as the lessons from global EV repair markets, how to establish Canada’s EV repair identity, what EVs mean for repair businesses and the evolution of EV collision repair.
