The CarExpert Experience Centre is open

The first CarExpert Experience Centre is officially open.

Located at Westfield Warringah Mall in Sydney’s Northern Beaches, the first Experience Centre features 19 cars from 12 manufacturers in a big space with no salespeople and no brand affiliation.

Along with an 900+ square-metre retail space, the Experience Centre includes a section of the Westfield valet car park for free test drives.

Once our experts help potential new-car buyers find the right vehicle, they can be referred back to the manufacturer or local dealer to finalise the purchasing process.

“We know car buyers and enthusiasts want something like this. People rely on the independence and enthusiasm of our expert online reviewers to help find the right car for them,” said Andrew Dalton, CarExpert CEO.

“Making that trusted advice available in a real-world setting, where people can actually sit in, and test drive cars from different manufacturers, with one of our brand-agnostic experts by their side, is a natural extension of our business.”

Just short of 2000 people visited the Experience Centre on its first weekend, with plenty of test drives to boot.

The CarExpert editorial team will be working the floor throughout the trial.

Whether you’re looking for a new car, want to talk to our experts, or you’re keen to meet Paul Maric in the flesh, pay the Experience Centre a visit.

“The most constant feedback we get from readers and viewers of our content is that they want an easier real-world experience when it comes to choosing their new car,” said Alborz Fallah, CarExpert founder.

“There’s no denying that the way people research and choose new cars is changing rapidly.

“We are bringing the best and most popular cars to a new environment and providing independent expert advice where there is no push for a sale and therefore removing the anxiety often associated with the new car purchasing experience.”
