Honda has enhanced the real-time dealership-inventory feature on its consumer site, enabling shoppers to quickly and easily determine where they can purchase new models via the dealer locator. “The enhanced real-time dealership-inventory feature on Honda's consumer website makes shopping hassle-free and transparent, by seamlessly connecting two of American Honda's most important assets: our customers and our dealers,” explains John Stevens, Director of Powersports Operations at American Honda.
Now, when researching a specific motorcycle, ATV or side-by-side at www.powersports.honda.com, customers can instantaneously check which nearby dealers have that particular model in stock. “They can then request additional information, or simply visit the dealer in person,” he adds.
Using the enhanced real-time dealer-inventory feature is easy. Starting with any model page at powersports.honda.com customers can simply click on the "Search Inventory" button. This links to a list of nearby dealers who have that model in stock. The dealer's name, address and phone number are all provided, along with the driving distance. There's also an option to email the dealer via an online form.
"We all know the feeling of excitement that comes with deciding upon an important purchase like a brand-new powersports vehicle," concludes Stevens. "At those moments, it's important for customers to be able to quickly and conveniently take the next step. We're pleased to support both dealers and consumers with this improved feature."
