CONNECT AUTOMOTIVE INTELLIGENCE
Insights that drive sales.
The Challenge
Today’s consumers spend the majority of their in-market time online. As shoppers browse, they leave behind valuable insights into their interests and intent. But without the right tools, dealers can’t easily see those insights and are likely missing out on sales opportunities.
How We Solve It
Connect Automotive Intelligence enables dealerships to uncover more leads, accelerate the path to purchase, and improve the customer experience by leveraging Cox Automotive data insights to meet customers where they are in their car-buying journey—even before a lead is submitted.
