Many local mechanics throughout the Midwest are takin' seriously the growing demand for independent EV maintenance/repair shops and makin' that investment. Tire shops too.

sullynd Posted October 31, 2025 Share Posted October 31, 2025 When Rivian first rolled out, with their Ford investment, I had hoped they’d use Ford as a “ghost kitchen” for service. Why build out that infrastructure? I’ve been wondering if Scout/Rivian won’t do that on some level. It would seem like there could be mutual benefit to both (For instance imagine if Lucid partnered with Mercedes for example). Relying on independents seems fraught with issues. I cannot imagine taking that gamble on investing if I owned a shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
