The brand has created a comprehensive approach with a one-stop solution that addresses all customer queries and concerns.

A holistic business offering and brand promise of providing competitively priced used cars, thoroughly checked and certified along with offering accessories, service and warranty packages (up to 12 months) to prospective customers. Each pre-owned vehicle undergoes a due diligence process, which identifies and replaces defective parts and is completely refurbished for sale. Post refurbishment, the car is inspected by a third-party inspector who then certifies the pre-owned car.
