New big player on the used car market
The European start-up Carvago wants to revolutionize the used car market. The second-hand vehicles come from selected European markets and are offered via the Internet - including home delivery, six-month guarantee, financing and vehicle registration as well as the innovative CarAudit certification including a 14-day return guarantee. The platform currently offers almost 700,000 vehicles. Carvago wants to make buying a used car more transparent with a clear presentation of the costs, including a list of every defect, no matter how small, and photo documentation of the transfer.
Secure online purchase
Using intelligent analysis tools, Carvago analyzes more than six million used car advertisements from all over Europe every day according to strict criteria. Only vehicles that meet the company's quality standards are listed www.carvago.com offered. When the purchase decision is made, the car is purchased by Carvago and made available to the customer. Carvago takes care of all legal, technical and logistical details. “With Carvago, buying used cars becomes a fully-fledged online business for the first time and consumers therefore also have all the rights of an online purchase, such as the 14-day right to return without giving a reason and delivery to their own doorstep,” says Jakub Šulta, founder and CEO of Carvago.
Transparency is key
Buying a used car is often opaque and involves many risks. After the strict approval process, Carvago arranges a detailed technical car audit by certified vehicle testing centers. If defects are discovered in the car during the inspection, Carvago will suggest alternative vehicles to the interested party, which will also go through the comprehensive CarAudit process. The launch of the European start-up with Czech roots in Austria is part of the company's internationally oriented development strategy. The declared goal is to become the largest and most popular used car online retailer in Austria. Since Carvago launched in the Czech Republic in October 2020, the company has already successfully expanded to Poland and Slovakia. The launch in Germany, Italy and Austria took place this week. Market entry in four other European countries is planned for the first quarter of 2022, including Switzerland and Spain.
