AramisAuto

AramisAuto is a leading European online car dealership. The company was acquired by Peugeot in 2016, and is still to this day one of the largest French B2C exits of all times.

2001 – France 🇫🇷 & Spain 🇪🇸

Founded in 2001 by Nicolas Chartier and Guillaume Paoli, their ambition was to become the number one choice for consumers wanting to buy a car. Automotive retail today still isn’t tailored to consumer needs, but rather those of manufacturers. Given that buying a car is a household’s #2 investment and that the internet was fast becoming the first source of buyer information, a change was on the books!

Today, AramisAuto is the French leader in online car distribution. This one-stop-shop is revolutionizing the way people buy used cars.

AramisAuto’s digital proprietary platform and car refurbishment factory provide clients with the guarantees they expect. Already n°1 in France, they have expanded into Spain & to Belgium thanks to their partnership with the PSA Group.

What we say

The merger with PSA made a lot of sense for both parties. For PSA, this diversification strategy gets them onto the used car market and helps their car dealerships liquidate stock. For AramisAuto, who remain autonomous, this is the opportunity to speed up international growth before eventually getting into selling cars between individuals. A second refurbishing factory will open soon in the greater Paris region.
