These have been picked because they are particularly successful in targeting Gen Y. Following slides outline why they are successful.

destinations on the path to researchPage 11Almost 90% of customers use dealer websites or OEM websites in the early steps of their decision makingSource: Innovating Automotive Retail, McKinsey, 2013

Ok so a few qualifying points here:Our websites are only one element hereConsumers will look at trade press, social media, etc

BUT:Our site is a massively under utilised resource. We have a huge volume of traffic going through so lets change it to make it more in line with what the customer needs.

So who are the key disrupters when it comes to research?

researchPage 12

Where can a prospect find out about finance on your website?

What kind of indicative pricing do you offer a prospect?

Do you only use the MRP?
