Big Boy Toyz (BBT), India’s leading pre-owned luxury car company, today announced the launch of Cars.co.in (CCI), India's first e-commerce platform for pre-owned luxury cars.

Building on BBT's 20 years of experience and trust, the user-friendly platform guarantees the highest levels of quality, documentation and total transparency. With just a few clicks, modern consumers will be able to buy a premium automobile thanks to this move. To assist customers in making well-informed decisions from the comfort of their homes, the site provides a sizeable inventory of premium vehicles.

Cars.co.in aims to become the go-to platform for luxury cars, with an ambitious goal of selling 400 luxury cars per month. With fast-tracked delivery options, it ensures delivery of cars at the consumer’s doorstep, anywhere in the country. It allows car owners to get the best value for their cars by eliminating the heavy expenses incurred by traditional car dealers. These expenses typically come in the form of big infrastructure costs, interest costs related to inventory and the risk of holding inventory – eating into more than 50 percent of the profit made on a single car. By cutting down on these expenses, CCI is able to pass on the price benefit to the car seller.

Jatin Ahuja, Founder & CEO, Big Boy Toyz, said, “Since 68 percent of our buyers book cars online without seeing them, the advent of Cars.co.in is a natural progression for BBT, and I truly believe CCI will be bigger than BBT in no time, becoming India’s go-to platform for pre-owned luxury cars. Currently, classifieds are the primary avenue for car sellers, but CCI is much more than that – our dedicated team manages everything from lead filtration to deal closure, along with loan financing, insurance, logistics and RTO processes for the seller. At the same time, for buyers, we ensure cars of the highest quality, seamless nationwide delivery and dedicated after-sales service, also offering optional extended warranties on used cars."

Kunal Maini, CEO, Cars.co.in, added, “Cars.co.in is India’s only full-fledged e-commerce platform that supports not just car owners but also used car dealers and OEM car dealerships to sell their used cars. This is just the beginning – our focus is on constant digital innovation, and we are committed to transforming the luxury car selling experience with unmatched convenience."
