The companies you will find listed here  are the major players in the used-car and remarketing worlds.

Some are well-known pillars of the business; others are just getting their feet wet, but they are nonetheless making waves. These companies have each made the list for different reasons, but they all have made a significant impact within the industry.

These are the Power 200.

This collection of the industry’s heavy-hitters covers nearly every aspect of the used-car and remarketing business: from the certified pre-owned segment, the auction world and rapidly advancing technological firms to auto lenders, inspection companies, dealer associations and much more.
