Artificial intelligence (AI) is taking the world by storm and rapidly expanding into the automotive market. With new features such as digital showrooms, AI chatbots, and inspection systems, AI can greatly impact your dealership's profitability and daily operations. Let’s explore!
The way people buy cars is changing. 87% of car buyers conduct online research before stepping into a dealership. But what if you could bring your dealership to them instead? With AI, you can!
Digital showrooms use AI to create an immersive and interactive car buying experience for online shoppers. Car buyers can explore your dealership’s inventory, customize their options, and even take a virtual test drive without leaving the comfort of their own home. If you’re looking to persuade more customers to visit your dealership, an AI-powered showroom might just do the trick!
AI chatbots provide your dealership the first point of contact with potential customers. Using advanced algorithms, AI chatbots offer a humanized approach to answering a wide range of questions. Some AI systems also flag questions the bot can’t answer, allowing a human representative to follow up with the potential customer.
The technology used in AI vehicle inspections scans vehicles from top to bottom to identify damages, leaks, and potential problems your customer may face. Some systems also provide an estimated quote on vehicle repairs.
While traditional vehicle inspections take time and require detailed notes from your mechanics, AI vehicle inspections provide comprehensive reports within minutes. This will save your mechanics time and frustration when helping your customers.
Implementing AI is exciting, but it’s a good idea to follow a few simple steps before fully integrating it into your dealership:
