New Car Configurators

Question: How do you keep consumers on your own website and stop them disappearing off to the manufacturer website when they want to configure a New car, or view dimensions, technical specification or current pricing and options?

Answer: At Progress, the last thing we want to do is attract a car buyer to your website, only for them then go elsewhere in search of new car data and up to date pricing. We have partnered with some of the industry's leading New Vehicle Data providers to offer a New Car configuration service that is easily tailored to your business needs.

Whether you are looking to provide a solution involving basic model/variant details, pricing and images, or you want to go the whole hog and provide a fully functioning configurator that mirrors the manufacturer's own data and gives you the options to build the price of a new car with grouped/dependent vehicle options, then Progress DMS can provide this for your website.

The data is automatically updated so there is no manual intervention needed - as new models arrive, they become available for selection on your site, and similarly any pricing updates will be immediately reflected on your own site.

In our experience, this is an invaluable service to provide to the new breed of Web 2.0 consumers, who are researching more online than ever before, and who think nothing of pressing 'back' in their browser if they don't find the information they need immediately...
