1

Inspection

With the intuitive OPENLANE Inspect app, you save time and create a car inspection report yourself. Upload the data directly to the OPENLANE Sell portal, finish off the car description, and request your auction. It only takes a few minutes to put your car in front of thousands of buyers on the OPENLANE platform.  You can then export the images and data for reuse on other platforms.

Auction

There are a few different ways to sell at OPENLANE, and your options depend on where your business is located.

Sell your vehicles at international auctions and they’ll be put in front of a network of more than 125,000 buyers from all across Europe. And just 48 hours later, we’ll present you with the highest bid. You then decide to accept the bid and complete the sale, negotiate with the buyer, or reject the offer and auction the car again.

You can also sell vehicles exclusively to your dealer network through communities that you create. You have control over when your community auction starts, its duration, and which buyers can participate. This is the perfect approach when you know your buyers and understand the types of cars they are seeking. Don’t spend time reading out to your network through email or messaging, but bring them online and connect them seamlessly to your offer.
