BRP Abandons New Zealand Regional On Road Customers

[Cobwebs]

It is not a question of economic downturn. Every one of the dealers is still in business selling Can Am off-road vehicles. Can Am on-road used the connections they had through Can Am off-road to convince their dealer network to sell on-road vehicles some years ago. Then once the dealers had purchased/invested in the tools, trained their staff, and bought the diagnostic software to service them, Can Am on-road attempted to up their sales volumes by forcing them to purchase more stock; then when they couldn't, they simply dropped them, leaving their customers up the creek.

A business decision you say? Perhaps, but it's clearly an immoral one. ... and I'm not alone. This from BRP CEO on their website.

Yep, and when inflation induced price rises cut sales of unnecessary Spyders (they are a disposable income item) and make SxS's a cheaper and safer farm utility vehicle that is a tax-deductible item, BRP will follow the trend. We are emotional beings, corporations are bottom line focused entities governed by one thing. When we get in bed with them, we know full well they might sneak out early when they find the wallet is empty.
