Product Updates- Acquisition Hub (Formerly Auto-e)
Catch up on all the improvements and innovations we have made to Acquisition Hub.
Evolving from Auto-e to Acquisition Hub:
Building on proven Auto-e foundations for enhanced customer experiences, higher conversions, and future-ready capabilities.
We’ve taken the Auto-e you know and love, with embedded finance workflows and guided conversion support, and made it even better.
Integrated digital retail journeys can reduce acquisition costs by up to 74%. Fusion-ready architecture unlocks advanced BI and AI insights, while personalised MyAccount features (save, track and follow-up) keep customers engaged beyond their first visit.
Acquisition Hub helps your buyers find the right vehicle faster, with less friction and more confidence.
Here’s how we’ve improved Acquisition Hub to deliver greater impact for you and your customers:
Your exclusive pilot access
Smarter vehicle detail page
We’ve redesigned the Vehicle Detail Page to put content first, making it easier for customers to move from interest to action. By prioritising immersive visuals and simplifying pricing, the page removes decision paralysis and builds trust.
Features include:
Pop-out finance calculator: Offers instant affordability insights without disrupting the experience
Dynamic CTAs: Adapt to user behaviour to keep momentum high.
Mobile-optimised lightboxes and enhanced location displays: Further improve clarity and confidence, especially for on-the-go users.
This update is more than a visual refresh—it’s a conversion engine.
Whether customers are browsing, comparing, or ready to buy, the new layout supports every step of the journey with less friction and more relevance.
Checkout that converts
The new Off-Page Checkout experience turns intent into action by guiding customers through a focused, transparent purchase journey. A smart summary box provides a clear overview of the basket, building confidence at the point of decision. Precision inputs replace sliders for more accurate selections, while a complete trade-in flow helps maximise deal value.
Customers can easily add extras, choose delivery options with clarity, and complete their purchase without distractions.
This streamlined environment reduces cart abandonment and increases transaction value, making it easier for buyers to commit with confidence.
Improvements available in Acquisition Hub Now
Smarter search, faster finds
Acquisition Hub’s updated vehicle search filters make the customer journey faster and more intuitive. Filters now stay accessible throughout the search thanks to independent scrolling, while the removal of finance sliders simplifies budget filtering. Multi-select options are easier to use, and the return of location search helps customers find nearby vehicles more efficiently.
Additional improvements include clickable colour chips, toggles to hide reserved or sold vehicles, and EV-specific filters that support growing interest in electric vehicles. All filters are dynamic and adjust based on available data, keeping the interface clean, relevant, and focused on what matters most to each customer.
The search experience just became smarter, faster, and more customer-focused than ever.

New Electric Vehicle modules convert curiosity into confident decisions by tackling the biggest barriers to EV adoption:
- Enhanced info chips give instant access to key specs like range and performance for faster, more informed choices.
- The Smart Charging Calculator provides personalised insights based on driving habits, removing range anxiety and boosting purchase intent.
- The Total Cost of Ownership Calculator compares real EV savings against traditional vehicles to turn price concerns into confidence.
Use these tools to reduce friction, build trust, and boost conversion rates.
