Carousell, one of the world’s fastest growing online classifieds, is launching its first-ever used car sale in the Philippines titled Car-O-Sale. Through this campaign, it aims to help jumpstart businesses of automotive merchants, many of which are long time listers since its early days as OLX. In addition, it is set to provide potential car buyers with a wide selection of quality used vehicles from its list of trusted sellers, paired with great deals.
Running from August 3 to 30, 2020, Car-O-Sale offers a wide variety of models with more than 1,000 vehicle listings to choose from for hopeful Filipinos looking to purchase a car for their personal mobility. Carousell’s biggest and trusted sellers, such as ALL CARS, Car Empire, and Batman Motors will be participating, offering discounts as high as PHP 150,000. The extensive listing include cars such as the Ford Ranger, Toyota Fortuner, Honda City, Toyota Hiace Grandia, Honda CR-V, and Toyota Alphard.
“Now more than ever, used cars can be of huge benefit for Filipinos as the need for a safe, convenient and affordable way to commute has been highlighted by the difficult mobility situation brought about by the Covid pandemic. In addition, many entrepreneurs who are in the used car business need the support to restart their operations after the ECQ. Through our online classifieds platform, we hope to be able to provide them with an effective and cost-efficient way to reach out to the car-buying market and promote their respective offerings,” said Karl Magsuci, head of autos, Carousell Philippines.
Public transportation has been limited due to tight restrictions in place and there has been a surge in online searches and inquiries due to a need to find alternative ways of commuting. Carousell helps address this demand by hosting an online car event that makes transactions convenient, ensures trustworthiness in dealings, and helps potential buyers connect to reliable auto dealers in the country.
“Carousell has seen a 64% increase in demand in the automotive category, as many people are looking for affordable means of transportation for their personal mobility, especially during these difficult times. Thus, it is a great deal to us to be able to give the Filipino people the platform for them to have easier access to a wide selection of vehicles and even better deals to choose from,” added Magsuci.
