CARMEL, Ind. — TradeRev (div. KAR Auction Services), home of a digital platform designed to facilitate live, dealer-to-dealer vehicle auctions, announces its entrance into two new U.S. markets: Kansas City, Mo., and Minneapolis.
Executives said “highly trained, customer-focused” TradeRev representatives will help dealers in each market fully integrate the company’s mobile app, which includes H-Vision, a proprietary AI-driven image capturing tool, into their dealership’s inventory buying and selling process.
“Our customer-obsessed focus, investments in innovation, data and technology and consistent TradeRev feature updates are paying off — dealers across the country are taking notice,” said Becca Polak, TradeRev president. “Kansas City and Minneapolis have highly concentrated networks of savvy dealers looking for tools to take their business to the next level. With TradeRev, we look forward to putting that tool in the palm of their hand and showing them just how fast, fair and easy we make auto auctions.”
