Cherokee Media Group is excited to announce the expansion of its spring event calendar with the launch of the Used Car Industry Summit, the used car industry's spring event, debuting April 13–15, 2026, at the InterContinental Miami Hotel in sunny Florida.
Built on the success of Used Car Week, UCS will have the very best the used car industry on display. With an emphasis on retail, remarketing, and auto finance, this event is designed to offer a more focused networking experience for business-building conversations and stronger connections.
Set in the scenic and popular destination of Miami, the Used Car Industry Summit introduces a fantastic East Coast location and an immersive gathering for industry leaders, innovators, dealers, and stakeholders. UCS will offer a relaxed setting, a fresh approach, and a new opportunity for the used car industry to network, exchange ideas, gain strategic insight, and shape the future of the used-car business.
And a big part of that future is electric vehicles, particularly used EVs. With that in mind, UCS will include a dedicated "EV Day" track. More details below.
EV Day at Used Car Industry Summit: We are witnessing the moment in the electric vehicle market where leaders and laggards separate themselves. Many dealerships are still navigating how to adapt sales, trade-in processes and marketing strategies to meet this moment.
The EV Day track at the Used Car Industry Summit brings together leading voices from across the automotive and EV ecosystems to equip dealers with the insights, tools, and tactics needed to drive new and pre-owned electric vehicle sales in their markets.
Breakout sessions offer actionable lessons for every team at every rooftop — from GM to sales to marketing to F&I.
Potential topics to include EV remarketing, reaching EV retail buyers, range anxiety, marketing strategies and more.
Also included in the track is the 2026 Best Places to Buy an EV Awards, celebrating the dealerships leading the way in EV readiness and customer experience.
Stay tuned for more details!
