New search option – mobile de and Hyundai offer battery certificates for electric cars.
mobile.de offers car dealers the opportunity to use battery certificates to market their electric vehicles. This makes mobile.de the first car trading platform in Germany to offer the integration of battery condition certificates, which are a decisive factor in the purchase decision for electric vehicles. From mid-February, the new function will be tested and further developed in a comprehensive pilot project with Hyundai Motor Germany.
A lack of knowledge about the condition of the battery is a common obstacle when purchasing used electric cars: around 92 percent of users of Germany’s largest vehicle market, mobile.de, consider battery certificates to be very helpful when making a purchase decision. [1]
The new function is now being gradually further developed through a cooperation with Hyundai Motor Deutschland GmbH. As part of a test phase, partner dealers in the “Hyundai Promise” used car program carry out a battery diagnosis and receive the corresponding certificate from the battery service provider AVILOO. The associated advertisements can be found on mobile.de using a new search filter and using labels on the search results and detail pages.
The joint test pilot is initially scheduled to last six months and is intended to contribute to customer orientation in the growth market for used electric vehicles.
Florian Baur, Chief Sales Officer at mobile.de, said:
Mobile.de is by far the largest marketplace for electric cars in Germany. [2] With the introduction of battery certificates, car dealers on our platform can benefit from even better visibility, more leads per advertisement and faster sales opportunities.
“We are pleased to have found a strong partner in Hyundai Motor Deutschland in order to gain valuable insights together for further project development,”
Tobias Krumnikl, Head of Commercial Customers & Used Car Strategy at Hyundai Motor Germany, said:
In order to counteract skepticism about second-hand vehicles with high-voltage batteries.
“The Hyundai Promise battery condition certificate has been part of our used car program since 2020. We are pleased that, through the cooperation with mobile.de, we can show “Many prospective buyers that the batteries in our vehicles are in almost new condition, even with high mileage,”
“We thank you for your trust and look forward to working together.”
The used car program “Hyundai Promise – Tested Used Cars” offers customers security, transparency, trust and comfort when purchasing a used Hyundai or a third-party vehicle from a participating Hyundai dealer. Hyundai Motor Germany supports its authorized dealers in professionalizing their used car business.
