Quicker and Simpler Ways for Car Shoppers to
Find New Vehicles on AutoTrader.ca
Midlist Banner
A selection of new vehicle listings related to the consumer’s search will be displayed in a midlist banner at the end of the priority listings on the Search Results Page. What’s more, there’s also a button, or secondary filter, that will allow consumers to filter their results to only new vehicles.
Vehicle Research Page
When consumers are viewing findings on a particular make and model on the Vehicle Research page, a new widget will display similar new vehicles with a link to view more new car inventory.
Red Flags on Mobile App
To capture the mobile car shopper, a “Great Deal!” inventory flag will highlight great deals on new car listings. When dealers list two prices (MSRP and their discounted price), the “Great Deal!” flag will appear if the discount is deep enough.
