Major aggregators use online platforms to facilitate wholesalers and dealers to list their offerings in one place. For instance, in 2022, AutoScout24, one of the leading online marketplaces in Switzerland received around 25 million visitors. The marketplace advertised more than 7,50,000 vehicles in 2022.
