A Brief Look Ahead to 2026

Aucnet shared inventory now available on Provide Cars

In 2026, Provide Cars will be taking an important step forward.

We are currently preparing to launch a shared inventory system that brings together vehicles listed by dealerships across Japan on AUCNET.
Unlike traditional auction formats, this is a fixed-price wholesale marketplace where each seller displays their own set wholesale price.

Because this system is not auction-based, it does not mean prices are higher.
Instead, transactions are conducted at fair and reasonable market prices, based on vehicle condition and current market value.

With no time limits or bidding competition:

  • Beginners can start wholesale purchasing with confidence, as prices are easy to understand and compare
  • Experienced professionals can instantly assess vehicle value from the listed information, significantly reducing the time required for purchasing decisions

As a result, overall operational efficiency is greatly improved.

In addition, the system is being developed with a more user-friendly and intuitive interface, rather than conventional trading screens.
This design allows overseas customers to search, review, and evaluate vehicles smoothly and efficiently.

Through this initiative, Provide Cars aims to deliver:

  • Clear and accurate vehicle information
  • Higher usability and faster decision-making compared to conventional systems
  • An accessible and reliable trading environment for both beginners and professionals

Further details will be announced once the system is ready for release.

As we move into 2026, we remain committed to providing accurate information, reliable service, and long-term trust to our partners and customers around the world.

Thank you once again for your continued support.
We look forward to working with you in the coming year.
