GM, Autobytel.com to Test Online System
Bloomberg News
General Motors Corp. and Irvine online auto marketer Autobytel.com Inc. said the auto maker’s Chevrolet dealers in the Washington area will test an Internet system that lets customers search for a vehicle and price throughout the region.
The 90-day test of the largest auto maker’s new system will include 22 dealers in northern Virginia, southern Maryland and Washington and will start May 1.
The Detroit auto maker, which announced last month that Autobytel.com would host the first independent test of the system, said that the Washington area was chosen because many people there shop online for cars and trucks.
