Charlotte was Carvana’s third market – compared to 61 markets today –
where the company began offering free, as-soon-as-next-day vehicle
delivery in September 2014. Customers who visit Carvana.com
can shop more than 10,000 vehicles from home or on the go via their
mobile device, finance, purchase and schedule as-soon-as-next-day
delivery or Car Vending Machine pickup in as little as 10 minutes.
As easy as buying a snack from a vending machine, Carvana customers who
choose Car Vending Machine pickup receive a commemorative, oversized
Carvana coin on-site to activate the vending process and transport the
car into the delivery bay. Every Carvana vehicle comes with a seven-day
return policy, giving customers the chance to see if the vehicle really
fits their life. Instead of four right-hand turns around a dealership
block, Carvana customers get an upgrade to the traditional test drive,
to ensure the car seats fit or the turning radius is tight enough for
the parking garage at work. Additionally, all vehicles are Carvana
Certified, have passed a rigorous 150-point inspection, have never been
in a reported accident, nor have frame damage. Features, imperfections
and updated information about open safety recalls are listed on the
car's vehicle description page.
“Charlotte is one of our earliest markets and one of the first cities to
embrace the new way to buy a car, so we’re incredibly proud that
Charlotte is home to our newest Car Vending Machine,” said Ernie Garcia,
founder and CEO of Carvana. “Our mission is to change the way people buy
cars, and our Car Vending Machines bring fun back into car buying while
providing a great customer experience.”
Located at 3631 South Boulevard, the Charlotte Car Vending Machine is
open Monday through Saturday, from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. ET. Vehicle pickup
at any of Carvana’s Car Vending Machines is free for all Carvana
customers. For customers that live outside of the Charlotte metropolitan
delivery area but would still like to pick up their car at the Vending
Machine, Carvana will subsidize $200 in airfare and arrange
transportation from Charlotte Douglas International Airport.
