Welcome back to our #NextGenAuto Series!
In our last post, The Next Generation of Automotive Shoppers: Why Transparency Matters More Than Ever, we explored how transparency builds trust with Gen Z buyers. Now, we’re shifting gears to another critical factor: consistency. Because trust isn’t built in a single moment—it’s reinforced at every touchpoint.
For Gen Z, a seamless, cohesive experience isn’t optional—it’s expected. Whether they’re browsing inventory online, clicking on an ad, or stepping into your showroom, every interaction must align perfectly.
75% of Gen Z shoppers say brand consistency impacts their trust in a company (Source: McKinsey). In today’s instant-information world, one inconsistency—whether outdated pricing, inaccurate inventory, or vague messaging—can send them straight to a competitor.
The Cost of Inconsistency
Gen Z has grown up in a digital-first world where information is immediate, personalized, and accessible 24/7. They’re quick to judge and even quicker to move on. A single mismatch—an ad that says one price while the website says another, or a vehicle advertised online but unavailable in-store—can break trust instantly.
72% of Gen Z consumers will abandon a brand after just one negative experience (Source: WP Engine). Similarly, 68% of consumers say they are more likely to stay loyal to brands that provide a consistent experience across all platforms (Source: Forbes).
In short, inconsistency is costing dealers both sales and long-term loyalty.
“If your ads, online listings, and in-store inventory don’t align, you’re losing out on connecting with the very audience who values clear, immediate answers—like Gen Z. It’s not just about what you have available, it’s about how you communicate that.” – Olivia Stapleton, Marketing/Sales Enablement, Western Canadian Dealer Summit 2024 Presentation
