View of the outlet

Arranged as in the study’s area diagram for the Full hub: a 14 ft customer front, a 20 ft workshop middle and a 16 ft rear. The boundaries show how areas relate, not designed walls or doors. Parking is in addition to the indoor area. In the renders and the 3D model, walls, glazing, finishes and fittings are illustrative, not a design.

Workshop

450 sq ft of 1,500 sq ft in the Full hub · Lean pilot: 240 sq ftThree bays with bench space

Routine mechanical service, tyres and brakes, fitment-confirmed parts, qualified electrical diagnosis and permitted module replacement: the proposed launch scope.

  • Basic lifts or work supports
  • Benches
  • Appropriate diagnostic equipment
  • Torque and electrical hand tools
  • Necessary personal protective equipment
  • Good task lighting

A protected viewing line into the workshop helps customers understand the work. Vehicles awaiting parts must not block the bays.

Two proposed outlet concepts.

The Lean pilot tests demand in a smaller space. The Full hub adds a third bay and more stock space, and needs stronger evidence of demand. From FIXXEV’s planning research. These are concepts, not approved franchise formats or packages.

In the Full hub, the 420 sq ft customer front holds the display and reception, the 600 sq ft workshop middle holds the bays and the clear access route, and the 480 sq ft rear holds parts, diagnostics and staff facilities. Parking is in addition to the indoor area.

How an outlet works.

Parts and service are the core of the business, with every job and every part on record.

EV service and repair

Routine service and repairs, with an estimate approved before any additional work.

In the outlet: Workshop, Reception and parts counter, Diagnostics and intake

How it works
  1. At intake, the vehicle’s brand, model, chassis or VIN, odometer, state of charge, visible condition, complaint and warranty status are recorded, with photographs of relevant damage.
  2. Any diagnostic fee is explained and the initial scope agreed. Additional work needs an estimate and the customer’s approval first.
  3. The technician follows the manufacturer’s procedure and uses verified compatible parts; every part issued is recorded on the job card.
  4. The fault, measurements, parts replaced and work completed are recorded, then final safety and functional checks are made, with a second technician’s review where practical.
  5. The customer receives a clear invoice, workmanship terms, a delivery acknowledgement and the next recommended action, and is followed up afterwards.

Parts counter

Parts for walk-in customers, with compatibility checked before anything is sold.

In the outlet: Reception and parts counter, Parts storage

How it works
  1. Compatibility is checked before a part is sold.
  2. Every part issued is recorded on a sales invoice.
  3. Supplier, compatibility, batch or serial number, warranty and return conditions are kept for each relevant line.
  4. Returned, warranty and waste items are kept apart from saleable stock.

Trade parts supply

Spare parts for nearby workshops and approved trade accounts, on disciplined credit.

In the outlet: Parts storage, Clear access

How it works
  1. Nearby garages and independent dealers are recruited as trade buyers.
  2. First orders are prepaid; after that, documented and limited credit is given to approved trade accounts only.
  3. Receipts and outstanding invoices are reconciled weekly, and further unsecured credit stops when an account breaches its terms or limit.
  4. Who absorbs freight, returns, defective parts, discounts and credit losses is agreed before a trade price is approved.

Where the line is drawn

  • OEM software access, warranty repairs, battery health certification and cell rebuilding need the right access, training and validated methods; being multi-brand does not provide them.
  • Manufacturer warranty repairs are not advertised without an agreement with the manufacturer. Potentially covered faults are triaged, and the authorised channel explained, before any paid work.
  • Public fast charging and cell-level battery refurbishment are outside the proposed launch scope.

Check a property.

Nine questions about a space you have in mind, from the requirements in FIXXEV’s planning research. Nothing you answer is saved or sent.

Is it on the ground floor, with level and safe entry for scooters?

Safe, road-level vehicle entry is a basic requirement.

Have you measured the usable carpet area?

Compare measured carpet area, not the advertised built-up or super area.

Does the owner consent in writing to sales, parts and repair use?

Lawful use, and the owner’s written consent for the actual repair scope, come first.

Is there lawful parking and loading that is not the footpath or the road?

Public footpaths, the carriageway and shared statutory parking cannot be counted as the outlet’s own.

Has a licensed electrician confirmed the sanctioned load and the earthing?

A licensed load assessment is needed before fitout.

Is the space ventilated well enough for a workshop?

Ventilation is one of the points to inspect on site.

Are fire-safety provisions and exits in place?

Credible fire-safety provision is a hard requirement; the layout must suit the actual exits.

Is it free of leaks, drainage or structural problems?

Major repairs to a poor shell can exceed a minimal fitout budget.

Could vehicles come in through a separate shutter or side route? (optional)

A preference, not a requirement: it keeps a breakdown vehicle from blocking the customer entrance.

Points to look into

Answer the questions above: anything you mark No or Not sure is listed here.

This check is for your orientation only. It does not assess or approve a property.

What to inspect on site
  • Drains
  • Shutter height
  • Roof leaks and storm marks
  • Corrosion
  • Ventilation
  • Sanctioned electrical load and earthing
  • Steps, columns and narrow shutters
  • Neighbours’ tolerance of workshop activity and deliveries
What to obtain in writing
  • Ownership authority
  • The sanctioned plan
  • Exclusive parking rights
  • Signage permission
  • Rent, maintenance, deposit and escalation
  • Fitout period, lock-in and exit terms
Design preferences
  • About 20 to 25 ft of useful frontage, where possible: a design preference, not a legal dimension.
  • Lawful private space for queuing and loading.
  • Useful evening visibility and safe entry from the main approaches.

From validation to opening.

A proposed preparation sequence for a company-owned store. It is not a process for approving a franchise application.

  1. Week 1

    Validate the property and the demand

    Property inspections and owner, rider, workshop and fleet interviews.

    What must be in place

    Measured premises, comparable rent terms, compatible demand and an initial account list.

  2. Weeks 2 and 3

    Choose the property

    The preferred property, a revised model, supplier terms and an itemised fitout scope.

    What must be in place

    All property gates pass, funding is available, margins are supported and the inventory fits the site.

  3. Weeks 3 to 6

    Fit out, recruit and train

    Minimal fitout, recruitment, training, systems and selected stock.

    What must be in place

    Utilities and permissions complete, staff demonstrate the supported work and each part has a verified fitment.

  4. Weeks 6 to 8

    Open, under control

    A controlled opening with appointment intake and measured trade supply.

    What must be in place

    Enquiry, quote, job-card, stock, invoice and collection records reconcile.

  5. Months 3 and 6

    Review

    A commercial review against the plan and the cash forecast.

    What must be in place

    Retain, resize or expand, based on contribution, collections, capacity and repeat demand.

The timing is a proposed work sequence: permissions, property readiness and supplier lead times can change it.

Safety, permissions and limits.

Guidance from the planning study. Every point needs current, location-specific verification; none of it is a certification or an approval.

Workshop controls
  • A job card and an approved estimate for every paid job; additional work only after a further approval.
  • The applicable manufacturer procedure and verified compatible parts for every repair.
  • Final safety and functional checks, with a second technician’s review where practical, before handover.
  • Fleet contracts that specify visits, labour, parts, response coverage, exclusions, payment terms and approval authority, never an undefined unlimited-service promise.
Manufacturer warranties
  • Manufacturer warranty repairs are not advertised without an agreement with the manufacturer.
  • Brand warranty policies can exclude non-recommended parts, unauthorised servicing and modifications; independent service does not automatically void every warranty, so each case is checked.
  • Potentially covered faults are triaged, and the authorised-channel option explained, before paid work.
Batteries
  • The diagnostics area is not a certified battery rebuilding, recycling or waste collection facility, and cell-level refurbishment is outside the launch scope.
  • Damaged or suspect batteries need a premises-specific isolation and specialist-handling arrangement.
  • Battery-waste responsibilities depend on the activity: the planned scope is confirmed with the state pollution control board, an authorised take-back channel is used and handover records are kept.
Permissions for the premises
  • Municipal trade permissions, Shops and Establishments registration, workshop use and signage permission for the chosen property.
  • A licensed electrical load assessment. The study’s 8 to 12 kW of coincident load is only a design starting point.
  • Fire requirements, exits, accessibility and ventilation assessed against the actual layout, and insurance in place.
Tax
  • GST registration for the operating entity, and an item-level HSN or SAC classification of the actual vehicles, parts and services.
  • No single EV tax rate applied to all parts and labour; quotations state whether tax is included.
  • Current notifications checked rather than an old summary of EV taxation.

Questions.

What does a proposed FIXXEV outlet contain?

A customer front with a display area and a reception and parts counter, a workshop, parts storage, a small diagnostics area, staff facilities and a clear route for bringing vehicles in.

What is the difference between the two concepts?

The Lean pilot is about 1,000 sq ft with two compact service bays. The Full hub is about 1,500 sq ft with three bays and more stock space. Both come from FIXXEV’s planning research.

What sort of property may be suitable?

A ground-floor space with level vehicle entry, a measured usable area, written owner consent for the intended use, lawful parking, and confirmed electrical and fire-safety provision. The property check above lists the main points.

Are fees, royalties or earnings published?

No. This website does not publish franchise fees, royalties, territories or financial projections.

What happens after I express interest?

You will see a reference number when your message is sent.

Express interest.

An expression of interest starts a conversation with FIXXEV. It is not an application, and it does not create an offer or an agreement.

Helpful to include in your message: your city, the concept that interests you, and whether you have premises.
