Carvana's ecommerce platform for buying and selling used cars is a place where people can find thousands of vehicles and conveniently shop from mobile devices. The platform recently launched as-soon-as-next-day vehicle delivery to Napa area residents, sharing a way for drivers to skip having to go to the dealership altogether.
On the platform, every car is Carvana Certified, which means that it has been put through a 150-point inspection, has no frame damage and has never been reported in an accident. All vehicles are photographed in 360 degrees and if it turns out that the vehicle isn't quite what a driver is looking for, they can make the most of Carvana's seven-day return policy.
