Prior to Carvana, for forever and a day (seemingly), the traditional car buying process had been met with heavy sighs, sweaty palms, and at times, some extra spicy internal (and external) dialogue lamenting the time spent and general experience surrounding the purchase of a new-to-you vehicle.
In recent years, however, online auto retailers – like Carvana – have stood at the forefront of the online car buying movement, taking a “Sell No Evil” stance, emerging not only as an exciting alternative to the old way to buy a car, but serving as an increasingly preferred choice amongst car buyers as a result of the no hassle, no gimmick online car buying experience that is offered.
The era of COVID-19 has only cemented this trend, shifting Carvana’s approach from a new way to buy a car, to the way to buy a car as a result of COVID-related restrictions and the general public’s apprehension towards risking their health and well-being by frequenting standard brick-and-mortar establishments.
Of course, some traditional car dealerships should be applauded for adapting to the modern-day car buyer and embracing a way of doing business that adds horsepower to the customer experience instead of something more akin to horse-and-buggy. Still, others are playing a game of catch-up when it comes to providing the efficiency, transparency, and selection offered by Carvana.
At the end of the day, our belief is that the experience for our customers shouldn’t be one that leaves them feeling like they are simply passengers on a wild car buying ride; one filled with twists and turns and peaks and pitfalls that ultimately leaves their head feeling like scrambled eggs on a Saturday morning. Instead, we aim to empower the car buyer by providing them with cutting edge tools that place them in the driver’s seat and in complete control of a car buying experience that is second to none.
At Carvana, we’ve made it our mission to ensure our customers “Live Feelessly” and without worry of being taken advantage of by offering a level of convenience, simplicity, and transparency that should be expected when buying your next vehicle online and from the comfort of home.
When it comes to selection, Carvana is virtually unmatched when it comes to the expansive vehicle inventory we offer our customers compared to what they’ll see elsewhere. With over 30,000 vehicles available online at Carvana.com, there is something for everyone, regardless of budget, where you live, or your credit situation.
Furthermore, Carvana gives customers the freedom to personalize financing terms for a vehicle that fits their life. Getting pre-qualified for an auto loan takes just two minutes with Carvana, allowing you the opportunity to shop with your real terms and actual monthly payments on every vehicle in our inventory. Unsure of your budget for that car you love? Don’t sweat it! Our helpful Auto Loan Calculator tool helps you determine what your terms should be by asking a few simple questions to get your search started.
In terms of vehicle protection, Carvana also offers you two kinds of coverage for your vehicle with CarvanaCare and Gap Coverage. CarvanaCare covers your car by extending its original warranty, covering costs should something break down, while Gap Coverage covers what you still owe on the car should it be totaled or stolen. Like Linus’ blanket, CarvanaCare and Gap Coverage are there to provide a sense of security and peace of mind long after your car buying experience with us is over.
On top of all that, we make getting your vehicle to you a breeze! With as-soon-as next-day delivery available in over 300 markets (and counting!) nationwide, you won’t have to wait long to finally get behind the wheel of your next car. For those seeking to come away with an unforgettable car buying memory, Carvana offers customers the choice to pick-up their vehicle purchase at one of our 29 Car Vending Machine locations from coast-to-coast. Regardless of how you choose to receive your vehicle, every purchase comes with a 7-day return policy and a 100-day/4,189-mile “Worry Free Guarantee”.
We know you have a wider variety of options than ever before when it comes to purchasing your next vehicle, but if you’re looking for the auto retailer who has built their brand and reputation on empowering customers and injecting simplicity and fun into the car buying experience, Carvana is here to put you back in the driver’s seat!
