Why join NexDrive?
NexDrive is reinventing the Canadian automotive service industry. We can help your business transition to the next generation of cars and drivers. NexDrive provides automotive service providers with the data, tools and knowledge to maintain and repair all makes and models of electric and hybrid vehicles.
A market driven by regulations
It’s official: by 2035, new combustion-powered vehicles will no longer be authorized for sale. The market for zero-emission vehicles is therefore supported by legislative framework and customer acceptability. Indeed, the reduction of emissions is at the heart of the current debate, encouraging the production and distribution of electric and hybrid vehicles across the country.
An opportunity to respond to the market by being a major player in a changing industry
20% more tires
Electric vehicles deliver stronger acceleration due to greater engine torque than combustion-powered vehicles, as well as more weight to manage.
