CarGurus is an online platform that connects buyers and sellers of new and used cars. It primarily operates in the United States, with additional presence in Canada, the United Kingdom, and Germany. Users can search for vehicles, compare prices, and read reviews on the site. CarGurus uses algorithms to rank car listings based on price, dealer reputation, and vehicle history, which helps users find the best deals. This focus on data transparency and user experience distinguishes CarGurus from traditional car buying methods. The company generates revenue mainly by charging dealerships a subscription fee to list their cars, along with offering advertising services and additional features like financing options and vehicle history reports. In a competitive market with other platforms like AutoTrader and Cars.com, CarGurus has established a significant presence by prioritizing transparency and ease of use.
