Dc Based Carsquare Is Adding Features And Raising Money

The main component of Carsquare is still their search function. They aggregate the top online auto sites as well as listings from their partners (such as CarFax and eBay Motors), so you can do all of your searching in one place. They’re continually working on improvements to make researching and buying a car as easy as possible. One of the new features is a virtual garage where you can “park” cars you’re interested in and invite people from your personal network to check them out and give feedback. They already offer unbiased reviews, but having input from people you personally know and trust is an important step in making an informed decision. According to CarSquare CMO Mikah Sellers, they’re close to closing a second round of funding. They plan to use the money to expand their marketing efforts and work on adding even more features to their platform. A little over a year ago, they raised an undisclosed amount in a Series A round. That round was led by Robert G. Hisaoka, an early-stage investor with experience in the automotive industry. They put that funding towards product development and improving their search functions.
