By bridging the gap between digital platforms and physical dealerships, CarDekho seeks to offer an efficient and personalized experience, which aims to cater to the evolving preferences of digitally savvy buyers in the region.

CarDekho’s AI-driven insights and lead management systems will be tailored to meet these needs, aiming a seamless integration of online and offline experiences.
Amit Jain, CEO and Co-Founder of CarDekho Group, shared, “What started in a Tier 2 city with the aim to empower customers across India, has now transcended borders. This marks a pivotal step in our journey to transform the global automotive ecosystem. Our expansion into the UAE, under the guidance of H.H. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Sultan Bin Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, is pivotal in replicating our Indian business model internationally. This move also aligns with our commitment to contribute to the UAE’s ‘Vision 2030’ which focuses on sustainable transport and digital transformation. Supported by our teams, partners, and customers, we aspire to set new benchmarks and establish CarDekho as a prominent name in mobility and auto-financial space on a global scale.”
