IRVINE, Calif. -

Customers of Fletcher Jones Auto Group’s Mercedes-Benz dealerships now have access to a digital sales and finance app powered by AutoGravity.

AutoGravity’s FJ Drive app, for iPhones and Android devices, enables Fletcher Jones’ customers to enjoy a seamless car shopping and financing experience that lets them choose from a large selection of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, secure a loan or lease through FJ Drive, and pick up their Mercedes-Benz at the Fletcher Jones location of choice.

AutoGravity uses proprietary technology to connect car shoppers, lenders and dealers. The company’s collaboration with leading banks and captive lenders provides users with up to four personalized auto finance offers. AutoGravity offers its one-of-a-kind smartphone-based car sales and financing experience with AutoGravity branded iOS, Android and Web apps, and partners with select OEM, lender and dealership brands to offer branded experiences, powered by AutoGravity, for their customers.

“FJ Drive powered by AutoGravity is a new platform that delivers an unparalleled mobile car shopping and financing experience right to the smartphones of the rapidly growing segment of tech-loving millennials,” said Andy Hinrichs, founder and chief executive officer of AutoGravity.

“The innovation-driven team at Fletcher Jones is embracing AutoGravity technology to set another benchmark in the increasingly digital world of automotive sales and finance.”

Shoppers simply choose the Mercedes-Benz they wish to buy, select their preferred Fletcher Jones Mercedes-Benz dealership, customize the terms of their loan or lease and apply for indirect financing with AutoGravity lenders, including Mercedes-Benz Financial Services. They can then take their approval to the showroom to pick up their vehicle.

“Our whole industry is going digital. By launching FJ Drive powered by AutoGravity, we’ve cemented our standing on the forefront of innovation and positioned Fletcher Jones to pull ahead and win with an unmatched digital car shopping and financing experience,” said Keith May, president of Fletcher Jones.

“AutoGravity is the clear technology leader in this space and Fletcher Jones works only with the best. Our partnership with AutoGravity extends our reach and empowers our guests through their favorite technology, anytime and anywhere they want.”

Both FJ Drive and AutoGravity are available for download on Apple devices running iOS 8.4 or higher from the App Store and Android devices running Android 4.1 or higher from Google Play.

AutoGravity said additional app features, network expansions and broader accessibility options are under development and will be announced shortly.
