Toronto, Ontario -- In an upcoming webinar, CCC Intelligent Solutions’s senior industry analyst Kyle Krumlauf and vice-president of quality repair and market development Dan Risley will dive into the key trends reshaping vehicle ownership and the downstream impact on claims and repair processes.
The pair will discuss the findings of a recent white paper that found the U.S. vehicle landscape is undergoing dramatic shifts. These shifts are creating ripple effects across the automotive, insurance, and repair industries.
The session promises to deliver data-backed insights into how trends are influencing every aspect of the repair cycle. Attendees can expect analysis on how vehicle age and type are shifting claims volume and repair timelines, as well as how the rising prevalence of electric and hybrid vehicles is affecting parts sourcing, labour requirements and technician training.
A combination of economic factors, extended vehicle lifespans and technology-driven transformation is keeping older, less technologically advanced cars in service longer even as the number of newer models equipped with advanced driver assistance systems rises.
The webinar will offer practical takeaways for professionals across the sector, helping them anticipate the challenges posed by a widening technology gap between legacy vehicles and high-tech model. Krumlauf and Risley will also examine how escalating complexity is influencing risk models, pushing up total loss thresholds and driving changes in repair planning and cost forecasting.
