AutoFacets 3rd Generation Kiosks: Revolutionizing Automotive Services for Digital Auto-Dealerships

From owning a car as an asset to specifying what features one wants to enhance the mobility experience of customers, we have come a long way. A mobility experience in its entirety is what we are referring to here. The cars of today come with several state-of-the-art features like passenger entertainment, self-driving, voice command, social media integration, AI-driven maintenance software and more.

Several automotive dealers who are in the car leasing and renting business, advertise themselves with the tagline – ‘segment-first’. But the sad part? Not all of them are successful in their endeavors. If we try to revive a scenario from a decade ago, it would be common to see a customer walking into a car dealership company, filling several forms, going through multiple brochures and haggling with different staff members before finalizing on a car on lease/rent.

But the scenario is quite different now. Customers ask for a hassle-free way to lease/rent/buy cars. And the automotive dealers of today have to cope with their expectations.

How Can AutoFacets Help?

To help lease and rental dealers surpass client expectations, AutoFacets introduced 3rd Generation Kiosks. These kiosks, when installed at the lease and rental showrooms, enable the dealership owners to digitize the end-to-end lease/rental lifecycle and create a secure, one-point car pick-up/drop off point. Needless to say, they create a queue-free system, enabling your customers to pick up/drop keys and make car bookings.

AutoFacets has achieved remarkable success with around 80% of customers agreeing that its 3rd Generation kiosks made check-ins easier for them. As compared to the employee-oriented check-ins, nearly 81% of customers would prefer a kiosk-based check-in experience. And almost 10% of customers upgraded or chose add-on services while checking in.
