SAN FRANCISCO, April 11, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Car and Driver , the most trusted brand for automotive content, today announced it’s now giving auto dealers the ability to put their inventory listings in front of people who are shopping for their next vehicle online. This product marks the beginning of Car and Driver ’s evolution from an enthusiast-focused news and reviews website to a complete decision-making resource for in-market auto shoppers.

“In turning ourselves into a true service for car shoppers and enthusiasts, we become a connection point between the consumer’s automotive curiosity/desire and the car itself,” said Editor-in-Chief Eddie Alterman. He adds, “While the function of our site is changing, our mission remains the same: to deliver the most useful, honest, and entertaining information about cars.”
“Taking a mobile-first approach, we have completely re-architected the website. We’ve also doubled our editorial staff and increased the scope of topics to cover more of today’s trending topics such as technology/mobility and environmental/green. Along with a suite of auto shopper tools (e.g., pricing, inventory, etc.), we’re also creating a new buyer’s guide section that includes nine in-depth categories for each make and model, with reviews on all of them. Car and Driver ’s evolution is in response to the disruption in the online auto marketplace; it’s about accommodating the ways people actually want to shop for cars online. We’re incredibly excited about how far we’ve come and what’s still yet to come in making the auto shopping experience more complete for our audience,” said Josh Searcy, chief product officer at CarandDriver.com.
The new inventory listings product is exclusive to CarandDriver.com and will be sold through Jumpstart’s dealer sales team, along with other dealer solutions.
The new listings product matches CarandDriver.com content and vehicle search capabilities with a dealer’s inventory, putting the dealer’s vehicles in front of more than 12 million unique monthly visitors and allowing dealers to own all messaging, ads, and links on their vehicle detail pages (VDP).
