The adoption of the platform Preview to Carsite, the online resale partner for Hitachi Capital Vehicle Solutions, has seen a marked acceleration in the process of pre-termination of online vehicle sales and the number of days to disposal drop by almost half.
Preview allows Hitachi Capital to market cars to consumers weeks before de-fleeting, minimising the delay between the end of vehicle contract and point of sale, enabling the company to improve its return compared to a more traditional physical auction sale
Scott Holland, Remarketing Manager at Hitachi Capital Vehicle Solutions said: “De-fleeting is a continual challenge in the current marketplace, which encourages us to be more and more creative with our approaches to disposal. Non-auction channels such as Carsite give us the flexibility to reach more consumers and still achieve a respectable sale price.”
