The dealer auction business continues to evolve towards more automated and data driven. With this joint venture, kicking the virtual tires likely became that much easier for dealers... 

Carfax and vAuto have joined forces to offer dealers vehicle history information on auction vehicles at a glance and with fewer online clicks.
Dealers that subscribe to both Carfax Advantage, which allows unlimited vehicle history reports, and either vAuto’s Provision or its AuctionGenius used-vehicle inventory management software can see whether a vehicle has experienced significant events such as reported accidents. That information is indicated by icons that show up in the search result without opening the listing.
