Autel announces ADAS buyer's guide

The company redesigned its ADAS website pages, providing customers with a resource for shops looking to add ADAS calibrations to their list of services.

Autel recently redesigned its ADAS website pages, providing customers with a resource for shops looking to add ADAS calibrations to their list of services.

With 99 million ADAS-equipped vehicles already on North American roads and 210 million projected by 2030, the need for shops of every kind to perform ADAS calibrations becomes more apparent, according to the Autel press release. 

"There are a lot of misconceptions and a good deal of fear among shop owners and technicians about performing ADAS in one's shop, and those fears break down into three questions:

  • Is my shop large enough to perform ADAS calibrations?
  • Can I afford a calibration system?
  • Can my technicians and I learn the technology?

We developed the site to mitigate those fears by providing a wealth of information that addresses each of those concerns," said Stewart Peregrine, Autel's senior executive of ADAS sales.

The updated site is broken down into the following sections:

  • Intro to ADAS -  a primer on the types of ADAS, such as automatic emergency braking and blind spot detection.
  • ADAS and Your Shop - an overview of the space needed to perform each type of calibration.
  • Autel Alignment and ADAS solutions
  • ROI Calculator - enables those considering bringing ADAS calibration in-house to see how quickly they can recoup their investment in an ADAS system.
  • Setup Guide - to quickly reference vehicle make, model, and year for guidance on the calibration pattern, target, or component needed for specific safety system calibration and to view the vehicle-to-target or -component distance requirements.
  • Contact Our ADAS Experts - invites shop owners to request a no-obligation consultant session with an Autel ADAS expert to answer any questions.

The site also offers a downloadable, printer-ready Intro to ADAS countertop tri-fold brochure and companion poster for shops to promote their new calibration service and educate customers on the vehicles' safety systems and the importance of calibration after a repair or alignment.
