Evoke in Automotive

The Automotive Industry has been one of the leading sectors to embrace digital technologies with the introduction of mobile apps being a major factor.
Through the use of apps, companies in this sector have been able to significantly improve their operations and support by providing a better service to their customers as well as maintaining and improving market position of their brand. With cars being such an expensive purchase item, it is essential that companies are able to provide apps that not only simplify and improve the interaction with their customers but also address the issue of customer loyalty to ensure that their customers next purchase is with the same dealership or supplier.
Examples of Evoke apps usage in the automotive sector:
  • Purchase/sales - as online purchase of cars continue to rise.

  • Preview - virtual tours of cars, price comparisons, dealer location, test drive appointments, etc.

  • Dedicated Apps for Customers/vehicles - e.g., keeping track of and providing instant access to service schedules related to a specific vehicle, alert for next service due date, on-line booking, updates to work progress etc.

  • Vehicle information/status – Instant customer access to general vehicle information, handbook and guidelines as well as the operational status of the vehicle.
  • Aftermarket auto parts sales – on-line retail apps for the search, selection and purchase of auto parts.

  • Internal use – customer information and sales pipeline, automotive parts search and order, vehicle tracking across dealerships etc.

  • Marketing – Alerts to new models, sales promotions, test drive availability/ booking etc.


Flexibility
Many apps in the automotive sector are able to take full advantage of Evokes map and location components, using tracking and the mix of analytical and graphical User Interfaces.
Evoke's own Component Library of actions, over 100 different UI Widgets and standalone Components (including Web services, Google Maps, 360° images and hot-spotting, embedded videos, Chatbots, etc.) combined with its options for unlimited customisation means that you can have the best of both worlds in that you can create both analytical and graphical elements of the same app. You can also establish the view and functions according to the type/management position of the authorised user, providing the right UI for the right person at different points of use.
