Car shoppers are more educated than ever before and are continually searching for a more interactive online shopping experience.
Dealers and automotive portals that meet these needs with interactive modules such as vehicle builders and vehicle comparators (see Vehicle Comparison) will typically see a benefit through increased visitor time on site and lead generation.
DataOne's vehicle build logic data is a comprehensive rules base which works together with specification data to support creation of vehicle builder or configurator modules. The data provides everything needed to configure vehicles within OEM order criteria, for over 30 brands.
The Vehicle Build Logic covers the years 2009-forward. The strict logic for inclusions and exclusions is based on the same OEM order information used by Franchise auto dealers to place orders for new vehicles.

The Vehicle Build Logic takes into account the following requirements:
Vehicle Configurator modules can be a powerful lead generator when integrated with automotive portals / classified sites. Many companies utilize third party configurator plug-ins because of the complex nature of the data and associated development time. Using the DataOne build logic data set it is possible to develop modules and API for third party license and for direct sales.
