Our take
AutoScout24 is an online classifieds platform for new and used vehicles that’s been expanding its reach across 10 European markets for over two decades now. This period, however, offers a unique opportunity for growth - and AutoScout24 appears to be taking full advantage.
Both the new and used cars markets saw a big kick recently, as semiconductor shortages hobbled production lines and backlogs saw consumers opting for used vehicles instead. This meant big movement on the AutoScout24 platform, and the company used that to renovate its offering.
As it takes full advantage of the market, it has recently expanded its global reach by acquiring Canada's Trader Corporation, strengthening its position in both European and Canadian markets. A promising acquisition that positions AutoScout24 for continued growth in the automotive sector.
