With this offering, individual sellers will be able to list their vehicles on the platform which can then be purchased directly by individual buyers/consumers.

As compared to other C2C players in this space, Droom’s offering will be strengthened by Full Circle Trust Score and Droom’s unique ecosystem services – Orange Book Value for fair market value of used vehicles, Droom History for used vehicle history report, ECO for used vehicle health check, Droom Credit for auto financing, and Droom Discovery for research & buying tools. Also, Droom is focused on transactions as compared to the classifieds model taken by many players.
