KUALA LUMPUR, 13 MAY – Southeast Asia’s largest used car trading platform,
Carsome, has launched its first Penang and Johor Bahru inspection centres early this
year, with their new addition in Melaka which opened this May, followed by Ipoh and
Batu Pahat this coming June. With the aim to provide nationwide coverage for their car
selling service, Carsome aims to setup a total of 15 inspection centres by the end of the
year.

Carsome prides itself as a one-stop solution for car sellers – from inspection to
ownership transfer – promising a hassle-free process with instant payment and zero
paperwork. Since its inception in 2015, over 31,000 cars were transacted on Carsome
platform across the four countries that they are present.

Customers can schedule a free car valuation at any of their 8 inspection centres located
in KL, Selangor, Johor, Penang and Melaka, where Carsome’s inspectors will appraise
the car and provide an offer on the spot. Customers will have the option to choose for
nationwide bidding, where the car will be put up for a 3-hour bidding session for all used
car dealers in Carsome network to purchase. Upon offer accepted by customer, all
paperwork will be handled by Carsome and payment is done via online bank transfer
instantly during ownership transfer.

“We’re focusing on expanding not just to first tier cities in the markets we are in, but also
on widening the coverage to second tier cities – we will be covering Ipoh, Seremban and Kuantan soon. We’ve currently obtained 5,000 dealers onboard across the four markets
we’re in, and with the vast dealer network that we have, we’re looking to offer our
services to benefit more people and get better car selling prices for our customers,” said
Eric Cheng, Co-Founder and CEO of Carsome.

Those who are looking to sell their car in Penang, Johor and Melaka can now head
