The automotive industry has seen a dramatic shift in consumer preferences and buying patterns. New technologies, electric vehicle growth, macroeconomic conditions, and supply chain issues have forced manufacturers, dealers, service departments, and aftermarket vendors to adapt to changing market conditions and gain a competitive edge in meeting customer needs.

UserTesting helps organizations optimize the customer experience from digital to showroom. By leveraging feedback and insights from consumers, organizations can better understand the customer journey and make informed decisions that help maximize revenue and customer satisfaction.
