Chatbot for Car Dealerships
Sell cars while you sleep
Mika connects to your live vehicle inventory and helps shoppers find the right car, truck, or SUV. When a visitor asks about available vehicles, Mika searches your inventory in real time and shows photo cards with pricing, mileage, and a one-click test drive request.
The Problem
Sound familiar? These are the leads you are losing right now.
Your website lists hundreds of vehicles, but shoppers leave because they cannot quickly filter to what they want without navigating complex search pages.
After-hours visitors browse your inventory but have no way to ask questions or express interest. By morning, they are at another dealership.
Your sales team spends hours qualifying leads from generic contact form submissions with no context about what the buyer actually wants.
“Car shoppers are doing most of their research online, often after your showroom closes. If your website cannot answer their questions and show them relevant inventory in real time, they are walking into a competitor's lot instead of yours.”
Why Car Dealerships Need a Chatbot
Live inventory search, not a static list
Mika queries your real-time inventory when a shopper asks about vehicles. Results show as photo cards with pricing, mileage, and condition, right inside the chat.
One-click test drive requests
Each vehicle card includes a 'Schedule Test Drive' button. When a shopper clicks it, their info goes straight to your sales team with the exact vehicle they are interested in.
Handle the after-hours crowd
Most car shoppers browse after work and on weekends. Mika captures their interest and contact info so your team can follow up first thing in the morning.
Speak your customers' language
Mika responds in English or Spanish automatically, so you never lose a lead because of a language barrier.
Before Mika vs. After Mika
Real scenarios that happen every day on your website.
Without Mika
A shopper visits your site at 9pm looking for a truck under $35K. They scroll through 200 listings, get overwhelmed, and leave.
With Mika
Mika asks what they are looking for, searches your inventory, and shows 4 matching trucks with photos and pricing. The shopper requests a test drive before bed.
Without Mika
A lead comes in through your contact form: 'I'm interested in a car.' No make, no model, no budget. Your sales rep spends 20 minutes qualifying.
With Mika
Mika captures the lead with full context: 'Interested in the 2024 Toyota Camry XSE, Stock #T4521, budget under $30K, wants to test drive Saturday.' Your rep calls with everything they need.
Without Mika
A Spanish-speaking family calls the dealership after hours. They get an English voicemail, hang up, and visit a competitor the next day.
With Mika
The family chats with Mika in Spanish, browses SUV options, and schedules a test drive. Your team follows up in the morning with a warm, qualified lead.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Mika connect to our inventory?
Mika connects to your inventory through a simple API sync. Your DMS or inventory provider pushes vehicle data to Mika, and we keep it updated in real time. No manual uploads required after initial setup.
Will Mika show photos of our vehicles?
Yes. Vehicle results appear as photo cards inside the chat with the first image from your inventory, plus year, make, model, price, mileage, and condition. If a photo is not available, a clean placeholder appears instead.
Can Mika handle hundreds of vehicles?
Absolutely. Mika queries your inventory database in real time, so it can search through thousands of vehicles and return the most relevant results in under a second.
What happens when a car sells?
Your inventory sync keeps Mika up to date. When a vehicle is marked as sold in your system, Mika automatically stops showing it in search results.
Does Mika replace our website's search page?
No. Mika is a conversational layer on top of your existing site. Shoppers who prefer browsing can still use your search page. Mika catches the visitors who want a faster, more guided experience.
