Solera cap hpi’s new self-service valuation data will give smaller independent dealers and motor traders easier access to its Black Book data.
The retailers will be able to sign up online and use the vehicle pricing information without going through the traditional sales process.
Chris Wright, vice-president for North Europe at Solera, said: “Independent dealers need the same confidence in vehicle values as larger groups, but they also need access that is simple and proportionate to the way they operate.
“Our new digital service makes trusted cap hpi data available through a straightforward self-service route, with clear subscription options.
“In a market where every buying and pricing decision matters, accurate valuation data can help retailers protect margin, reduce risk and move stock with greater confidence.”
Retailers can also add Valuation Anywhere, available on desktop and mobile, which extends coverage to cars, light commercial vehicles and motorcycles through additional subscriptions.
Independents can access the data through a card-based subscription, helping them value stock more accurately when buying and set retail prices with greater confidence.
Solera cap hpi said the service is designed to help users protect margin, maximise profit and reduce exposure to market movements.
