CARMEL, Ind. -

ADESA this week announced continued benefits to registered dealers who purchase vehicles online, via the implementation of various new products and services.

ADESA’s High Bid Wins program, for example, makes it easier to purchase dealer-consigned vehicles online by setting an opening price at reserve for all off-site dealer-consigned vehicles available on ADESA.com.

“This program offers transparent pricing for dealers and that customers will receive their vehicles in a timely manner,” said Tim Zierden, ADESA senior vice president of dealer services.

“High Bid Wins gives buyers more confidence that the time they spend placing bids will result in purchases, not negotiations,” he said.

Another online program aimed at boosting buyer confidence is ADESA’s Enhanced vehicle listing category.

In this program, select vehicles purchased on the company’s online buying platform, ADESA DealerBlock, will now be sold with an enhanced arbitration policy.

“The enhanced vehicle listing category gives buyers further peace of mind when purchasing vehicles online,” Zierden said, “and allows them to source more of the types of vehicles they need for their unique inventory mix.”

Enhanced vehicles on ADESA DealerBlock are marked by a special “E+” icon designation.
