Car buyers are looking for perks that are different or better than what other dealers are offering. Offering the latest tech is a major motivator in the decision process for consumers. If it is newer, faster, nicer, has better rated safety features consumers want it. The growing demand for granular data among car buyers has dealers rethinking their product line. What were once after thoughts like speed alerts, geofence info, recall information, dash cameras, & maintenance reminders are now considered valuable data points most consumers are searching for. If they are not present at time of sale they are likely to be added aftermarket.
Here are the top three aftermarket products that car buyers are most interested in:
The Dash Cam & Rear Facing Cam
What used to be a novelty has now become a standard feature for many drivers, providing essential security and recording capabilities. Not only do dash cams protect you from fraudulent insurance claims, but they also provide valuable evidence in the event of an accident and can help improve overall driving habits by recording and reviewing driving behavior, as well as document unique and noteworthy events that drivers feel compelled to share in our connected world.

A branded smartphone app
