About Us

ABOUT DEALERNEWS

Dealernews is the Voice of Powersports Retailers, helping them combine their passion for the sport with their pursuit of profit. Our readers count on us for news, analysis, retail trends, and exclusive research that give Dealers the tools they need to stay innovative and competitive. Since 1965 Dealernews has played a critical role serving the North American powersports industry, and in 2016 Dealernews was officially purchased — by Dealers. Now, Dealernews is truly OF the Dealer, BY the Dealer and FOR the Dealer.

 

Dealernews focuses on the business needs of powersports Dealers — from the franchised dealerships to the small repair shops. Content speaks to owners, GMs, department managers, associates, technicians and service writers, marketers and others responsible for building and sustaining a powersports retail business.
