New ’Car-as-a-Service’ concept opens up a brand new car market – already Europe’s largest!

Baggrund

Interdan is Denmark’s second largest car importer and the engine behind the popular car brands Peugeot, Citroën, DS Automobiles and Mitsubishi. Interdan is constantly on the lookout for new and interesting directions.

As market leader, Interdan wanted to challenge three well-known car industry barriers for growth:

1. Buying a new car is a large decision for too many potential customers. How can we create a solution, which will make the decision easier?

2. How can we move cars from a classic purchase or leasing market to a ‘Car-as-a-Service’, where the owners can change on the go?

3. The car industry has for decades been very traditional, but how can we challenge and be an active part of transforming the industry anchored in strong customer value?

A new car means freedom to go, but it also involves a lot of hassle and very little flexibility, if your life situation changes. When you then top it, with being in a market with the largest car taxation in the world, we need to change the game.

Løsning

We channeled all the assumptions and curiosity into numerous cycles of MVPs, conducted multiple user tests and iterations, before arriving at a concept, that lets people get around easily, without the hassle of owning or leasing a car.
Before launching the actual proof-of-concept solution, we launched a ‘fake’ web site to capture the potential interest from customers.

It was clear to us that we had found something unique. Subscribe to your new car.

The solution:
Bilabonnement.dk lets you subscribe to a car, like you subscribe to anything else – on your own terms, to a known price and hassle-free. And when your needs or preferences change, so does your car.
