Who Is This Plugin For?
Car Dealers
Car dealers can use the Motors plugin to showcase their inventory online. By creating detailed listings with photos, videos, and descriptions, dealers can attract more buyers. For example, a car dealer can use the plugin to allow customers to request test drives directly from the listing page and many more.
Dealerships
Dealerships can benefit from the Motors plugin by managing multiple types of vehicles in one place. Whether they sell cars, motorcycles, boats, or trucks, they can keep their listings effectively. A dealership can set up categories for different vehicle types to help customers find what they’re looking for.
Create a Listing with Ease
You can add all the important details about the vehicle, like its make, model, year, and mileage. Plus, you can upload photos and videos to give buyers a good look at the vehicle from every angle.
You have the option to let the plugin come up with a title for you based on the vehicle’s details, or you can create your own to highlight its best features. Don’t forget to fill in important info like the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), production date, and any history or maintenance records.
Customize Listing Pages
You can choose how you want your listings to appear, whether it’s in a grid or list format, to make it easier for buyers to browse through. You can also add buttons for test drives, loan calculators, and certification logos to help buyers make decisions faster.
