Early bird registration has opened for ASA National’s Congress of Automotive Repair & Services (CARS) event, a one-day live industry event for mechanical repair shop owners and their managers to focus on new and upcoming technology.
The event will take place on November 1 at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas and will feature the well-known 7th Annual Technology & Telematics Forum (TTF).
“The all-day event will be packed with data, presentations, speakers, panels, training, and networking with peers and experts in the automotive industry,” ASA President Ray Fisher said.
With limited seating available, early bird registration is recommended. The special pricing will run through August 20 ($179 for ASA members and $279 for non-members). Prices will increase beginning August 21 to $199 for ASA members and $299 for non-members.
As noted, the first morning session at the live event will feature TTF. ASA is partnering with the Alliance for Automotive Innovation for the 2021 TTF program: “A Changing Fleet.”
According to ASA Washington, D.C. Representative Bob Redding, this year’s TTF program will focus on “the transportation sector’s transition to an electrified future and the implications for independent automotive repair shops.”
Redding said the forum will feature a diverse group of speakers and topics throughout the day aimed at bringing the best and most up-to-date information about electric vehicles, the climate crisis and new vehicle technologies entering the market.
TTF topics will include new car technologies, electric vehicles, smart purchases, manufacturers’ focus on the state of climate change, and clean energy.
The afternoon CARS “Executive Outlook - the Road Ahead” segment will feature panel discussions and presentations providing valuable data and information.
