AUSTIN, Texas -

Data collector Vast announced early this week the availability of its new CarStory Market Reports, the company’s grouping of data models that analyze more than 100 million used-vehicle searches.

The reports, available for free to dealers as well as consumers, provide individual vehicle information such as supply, demand and market features, as well as special features about a vehicle that makes it different from others.

“We are thrilled that we can now bring that data to such a broad audience of people who can benefit from it,” said John Price, Vast’s chief executive officer.

The company is offering dealer-branded market reports for free to dealerships who sign up before the end of the year.

“CarStory Market Reports are built for simplicity so that they both enhance and accelerate the car-buying process,” said Joe Webb, founder and president of DealerKnows Consulting.
