HPI Launches Motor Trade App

Now dealers can conduct HPI Checks wherever they are, with the launch of HPI’s new app dedicated to the motor trade industry. Available on IOS mobile devices, including tablets and smartphones, customers can access HPI’s vehicle data and provenance checks in the palm of their hand. This launch forms part of HPI’s ongoing commitment to meeting the needs of its customers operating in a competitive marketplace.

Key Features for Dealerships

The new, free to download trade app includes HPI and ID Checks, as well as CAP Live, Glass’s and Market Values Valuations, ensuring dealers can protect the quality of their stock and avoid paying over the odds. The app also features the award winning HPI Spec Check and NMR Check. Dealers can set preferences for optional elements locally on the device whilst the account holder maintains control of mandatory elements via their main account settings.

Results are clear and simple, with the benefit of being able to add extra valuations or spec data, if available. The last 100 checks remain on the device, allowing dealers to revisit recent results and recheck a vehicle. All checks made on an account, across all devices, are recorded in HPI History online.

Industry Response to New App

Neil Hodson, Managing Director for HPI, “With the launch of the HPI trade app, we’re ensuring our customers can benefit from our core services, whether they are at an auction or on their own forecourt viewing potential stock. Dealers on the go now gain access to HPI checks with no additional cost, just added convenience to help them close more deals.”
