Fueled by more than $460 million in funding, Carvana – the leading national online auto retailer – has officially launched in Cincinnati, further expanding the company’s overall presence across the Midwest.
Marking the 17th location since launch, Carvana continues rapid expansion and can now offer as-soon-as next-day car delivery to more than 118.3 million customers nationwide, 7.9 million residing in the Cincinnati and metropolitan areas.
Carvana is the only destination, where customers can search for, buy, finance and sell their car entirely online – including financing and contract signing – in 20 minutes or less without ever stepping foot inside a dealership. The company continues to invest in developing advanced, proprietary technology to give customers every tool needed to seamlessly complete the entire car-buying and selling transaction from home, while saving an average of $1,461 per purchase. Also central to Carvana’s customer-first approach, the company provides a 7-Day Return Policy for every vehicle purchased from its growing inventory of more than 5,000 company owned vehicles.
“We offer a unique, honest and transparent approach that gives customers a whole new way to buy a car and puts them back in control of their car-buying experience,” said Ernie Garcia, founder and CEO of Carvana. “Knowing that Cincinnati is a big driving area, we’re confident customers will appreciate the great experience Carvana offers over the traditional dealership model. As the third biggest city in Ohio, with proximity to Northern Kentucky as well, there is a high demand for used cars in this area, and we’re excited to bring the Carvana experience to this market.”
To date, Carvana offers its services in 46 states and provides delivery options nationwide. Additional facilities enable Carvana to offer faster and more affordable delivery options, including free, as-soon-as next-day delivery to local residents in residents in 17 markets: Atlanta, Austin, Birmingham, Charlotte, Columbus, Dallas, Houston, Jacksonville, Miami, Nashville, Orlando, Raleigh, San Antonio, Tampa, Richmond, Washington D.C., and now Cincinnati.
Cincinnati area consumers who purchased a vehicle prior to Carvana’s expansion into the market will receive a full refund of any delivery fee paid.
Carvana was founded in 2013 and is based in Phoenix, Ariz.
