Carvana Delivers Online Car Buying to Delta Community
Staff Report From Metro Atlanta CEO
Wednesday, February 10th, 2016
Carvana has teamed up with Delta Community Credit Union, Georgia’s largest credit union, to provide more car buying solutions for its members. Beginning today, Carvana, the first complete online auto retailer and Forbes 5th Most Promising Company, brings its online car buying platform direct to Delta Community members online and in branch.
By teaming up with Carvana, Delta Community offers its members access to Carvana’s nationwide inventory of certified pre-owned vehicles coupled with the Credit Union’s low-rate car loans. Delta Community members can also work with Carvana’s Delta Community in-branch member service representatives to source new cars exclusively across metro Atlanta.
“We are thrilled to work with Delta Community to offer its members an enhanced car buying solution,” says Ernie Garcia, founder and CEO of Carvana. “Our process gives car buyers an alternative to their local dealer by allowing them to browse an inventory of vehicles, set customized financial terms and coordinate delivery method and timing best suited to their needs.”
Physical car dealerships have high overhead costs that are passed onto the consumer during the car buying process. Carvana eliminates the time and cost associated with shopping at a physical dealership and replaces it with a consumer-friendly technology and an average savings of $1,681.
“Our members look to us to help them get more out of their finances throughout their lives,” says Bob Walsh, Delta Community’s chief lending officer. “By working with Carvana, we are now saving our members money when they purchase their vehicles as well as their time when they browse inventory and complete the process from the comfort of their homes.”
