Used & New Car Trading

Used & New Car Trading with AutoPult

Vehicle trading — whether used or new cars — requires a structured workflow: from purchasing through reconditioning to the final sale. AutoPult digitally maps the entire trading process and ensures that no step is missed and every euro is traceable.

Average days in stock at a glance: AutoPult automatically calculates the days in stock for each vehicle and alerts you before capital holding costs eat into your margin. This way, you can make timely price adjustments.

Digitize the Purchasing Process

Profitable trading starts with purchasing. AutoPult supports all common purchasing channels:

Trade-in: On-site customer appraisal, DAT/Schwacke valuation, purchase agreement creation
Auctions: Capture vehicles from online auctions, manage bids and track costs
Dealer purchasing: Purchase via the B2B platform or directly from partner dealers
EU import: Handle vehicles from abroad with the import module

With every purchase, the VIN is automatically decoded, the vehicle registration document can be scanned via OCR, and all costs flow directly into the vehicle file.

Good to know

Between purchasing and selling lies reconditioning. AutoPult documents every reconditioning step and records the associated costs.

Reconditioning & Workshop

Between purchasing and selling lies reconditioning. AutoPult documents every reconditioning step and records the costs:

Workshop Orders

MOT preparation, oil changes, brakes, tires — every order is assigned to the vehicle. Parts from inventory management are automatically drawn and posted.

Photo Documentation

Condition photos before and after reconditioning. The AI image editor creates professional listing photos with optimized backgrounds and perfect lighting.

Sales Process & Listings

Once the vehicle is ready for sale, create listings on all relevant portals with a single click via multi-listing. The sales process is managed in the CRM:

Automatically assign customer inquiries to the vehicle
Schedule and document test drives
Create financing and leasing offers directly
Automatically populate and digitally sign the purchase contract
Create a handover protocol and deregister the vehicle

New Car Ordering Process

For new car dealers, AutoPult also maps the ordering process: customer configuration, binding order with the manufacturer, delivery tracking and registration. The vehicle file is created at the time of order and grows with every step.
