The electric vehicle (EV) revolution is more than just a shift in transportation—it’s reshaping the entire landscape of automotive commercial real estate (CRE). From EV charging infrastructure to service center design, the growing adoption of EVs is forcing property owners, investors, and developers to rethink how automotive spaces are built, used, and valued.

1. Charging Infrastructure Becomes a Priority

One of the most immediate impacts of EV adoption is the increased demand for EV charging stations. Commercial properties—especially those related to automotive services like dealerships, gas stations, and repair shops—must now integrate charging points into their real estate plans..

Key CRE Implications:

  • EV charging stations increase property value and foot traffic.
  • Properties without EV infrastructure may face tenant turnover or decreased interest.
  • New builds are incorporating Level 2 and Level 3 chargers to stay competitive.

2. Shifts in Service and Maintenance Centers

One of the most immediate impacts of EV adoption is the increased demand for EV charging stations. Commercial properties—especially those related to automotive services like dealerships, gas stations, and repair shops—must now integrate charging points into their real estate plans..

CRE Trends:

  • Smaller service bays and more tech-focused layouts.
  • Increased demand for EV-certified service centers.
  • Older properties may require retrofitting or redevelopment to stay relevant.

Market Reception & Early Feedback

EV infrastructure is no longer optional—it’s a driver of value and tenant retention.
