TrueCar partnered with AAA Carolinas Thursday not only to help vehicle buyers in North and South Carolina, but also to increase the site’s possible connection to 50 percent of the entire organization’s membership nationwide.

The newest deal means TrueCar will be powering AAA Carolina’s online auto buying program with a more comprehensive service that provides savings information on new cars and compares pricing information and recent sale prices on new and used models.

“By adding TrueCar to our auto buying service, AAA members now have two different options when shopping for their next vehicle,” said George Figueiredo, general manager of automotive sales for AAA Carolinas.

“In addition to our world class auto sales personalized service, members can now also build their preferred virtual vehicle online, and compare it to what other consumers have paid for the same car.”

AAA Carolinas is the 18th AAA organization to provide an online vehicle-buying program powered by TrueCar. AAA Carolinas has a membership base of more than 1.8 million members.

With the enhanced program powered by TrueCar on AAA Carolinas, members can receive guaranteed savings on a new vehicle from over 5,200 certified dealers.

When on AAA Carolina’s auto buying program, members can compare pricing information on thousands of new and used vehicles, view prices other buyers paid for the same vehicle and lock in savings with a trusted program certified dealer. 

Officials indicated members have seen an average savings of $2,678 off of MSRP.
