Design of a digital platform allowing users to obtain an instant trade-in estimate for their vehicle across multiple automotive brands.

The product was deployed for several manufacturers including DS Automobiles, Citroën, Peugeot, Opel, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Jeep, Lancia, Spoticar, PSA Retail, Kia and Ford. The goal was to transform a traditionally complex process — vehicle evaluation, damage reporting and resale estimation — into a simple, intuitive and scalable digital experience.

The platform also acts as a lead generation tool for dealership networks, connecting online users with physical points of sale.

The product was deployed for several manufacturers including DS Automobiles, Citroën, Peugeot, Opel, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Jeep, Lancia, Spoticar, PSA Retail, Kia and Ford. The goal was to transform a traditionally complex process, vehicle evaluation, damage reporting and resale estimation, into a simple, intuitive and scalable digital experience.

The platform also acts as a lead generation tool for dealership networks, connecting online users with physical points of sale.

Approach

The user journey was structured into five clear steps: vehicle information, vehicle condition, user profile, dealership selection, final estimation.
A visual progress system helps users understand where they are in the process and reduces friction throughout the experience.

Challenge

Vehicle trade-in estimation involves multiple steps and technical information that can be difficult for users to understand. The challenge was to design an experience that: simplifies the estimation process, guides users step by step, builds trust in the result works across multiple automotive brands with different visual identities.
Another key challenge was designing a scalable interface capable of adapting to several brand ecosystems.

Multi-Brand Design System

The interface was designed as a scalable multi-brand system.
A shared design framework ensures consistency across brands while allowing visual customization based on each manufacturer’s identity.
The system includes: reusable interface components, adaptable color and typography systems, flexible layouts supporting different brand guidelines.
This approach enabled the platform to be deployed efficiently across multiple automotive ecosystems.

Outcome

The platform turns a complex and often stressful process into a clear and guided digital experience.
By combining a structured user journey, interactive elements and a scalable design system, the product supports both user needs and dealership business goals. The result is a flexible platform capable of supporting multiple automotive brands while maintaining a consistent user experience.
