2022 SEMA Show to Expand EV Showcase
The 2022 SEMA Show will feature an expanded SEMA Electrified section, event organizers announced.
Located in the North Hall, the specialized exhibit area will feature the latest advancements in electric vehicle (EV) technology, including new products and solutions for EV platforms and conversions.
“The EV aftermarket is evolving quickly and continues to change; we’re curating a unique collection of the latest products related to electric vehicles and the aftermarket,” said Tom Gattuso, SEMA vice president of events. “SEMA Electrified will help businesses see the latest trends and understand how the EV market has evolved. Visitors will gain an understanding of the advancements and opportunities for the future.”
Although alternative powertrains currently represent just 1% of the 250 million cars, SUVs, and light-duty trucks in operation on American roads, sales and interest in EVs are increasing rapidly, SEMA officials said. According to recent SEMA Market Research, the electric market includes several areas of opportunity for the aftermarket, including the development of parts and products to aid in the conversion of older internal-combustion vehicles; building and modifying new project, racing, and purpose-built vehicles; and expertly accessorizing new OEM electric offerings.
