Test Drive Videos Put Shoppers in Driver’s Seat

More car buyers than ever no longer want to visit dealerships to research their potential purchases, instead spending time on the dealer’s website to find the exact model they want online. It is important now to help shoppers due their research right on your website.

A brief video or a few pictures of the vehicle can give car shoppers an idea about the vehicle. But, a test drive video allows car shoppers to get a feel for the cars before even setting foot on the dealer lot. They can take customers' car shopping experience to the next level. Most car shoppers want to see someone test drive a vehicle and hear other people's opinions as well as get the experts’ take on a car before making up their mind.

An efficient and easy way to attract online shoppers to your dealership website is to offer the video content they are searching for elsewhere. Test drive videos engage, inform and influence car shoppers. Test drive videos can immerse car shoppers in the experience of a particular model without ever leaving their home. A nicely done test drive video covers all aspects of the vehicle. When these videos do not exist on a dealership's website, chances are the customer will be looking for it somewhere else and may never come back to your website and your dealership. The watch time of the test drive videos has grown by more than 60% in the past two years.
