The importance of vehicle data in retail
Accurate vehicle underwriting and pricing remains one of the biggest challenges for many automotive businesses. Knowing the standard and optional specification for a vehicle, as well as the original price of those options, can help to increase profit margins on both the acquisition of stock and the end sale.
Dealers, in particular, face the pressure of an ever-changing vehicle parc, as more used EVs and alternative fuel vehicles enter the pre-owned market, alongside the ongoing challenges in sourcing and pricing used vehicles.
