About Us
Who We Are
Carsome is Southeast Asia’s largest integrated car e-commerce platform. With presence across Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Singapore, we aim to digitalize the region’s used car industry by reshaping and elevating the car buying and selling experience.
Carsome provides end-to-end solutions to consumers and used car dealers, from car inspection to ownership transfer to financing, promising a service that is trusted, convenient and efficient.
Our Vision
To drive Southeast Asia’s automotive industry forward in the used car ecosystem
What We Do
We first started as a used car selling platform where we help customers sell their used cars through a trusted, convenient and fast process.
This simple process starts with booking an appointment online. Our extensive 175-point inspection process is free and takes only 30 minutes at a Carsome Inspection Center.
Our highly-trained inspectors are well-equipped to provide a complete car condition report before an on-the-spot offer is given. Alternatively, customers can proceed with bidding where our network of dealers will have the chance to place a bid. After the sale is confirmed, all paperwork will be handled by us.
From car inspection, ownership transfer, to easy financing, selling a car becomes hassle-free. Carsome eliminates the pain points in the traditional used car selling process, offering effective solutions to consumers and used car dealers.
In August 2020, we launched ‘The New Way of Buying Cars’, a brand new service that offers consumers a seamless car buying experience.
Enter www.carsome.my, click on the Buy Car tab, and consumers can browse for their dream cars to fit their lifestyle. All Carsome Certified cars have a 360-degree view of the car’s interior and exterior, a list of the current imperfections, a professional reconditioning report, as well as a fixed price with no hidden fees. Booking a test drive can be easily done anytime and anywhere on the website.
To give consumers quality assurance and peace of mind, all Carsome Certified cars come with the Carsome Promise, which includes a 5-day money-back guarantee, a professional 175-point car inspection, a 1-year warranty, and fixed price with no hidden fees.
