Microsoft Bing launches a marketplace for autos

Microsoft this week announced the launch of Autos Marketplace in Bing, in the US. Microsoft says the Autos Marketplace is a new research assistant for a car.

Autos Marketplace offers price information, filters like brand or body style, particular make and model, and vehicles that are available locally.

Microsoft says when users start a search from the Autos Marketplace, they will find vehicle information as well as a useful browse-by-map view that shows nearby dealerships, as well as real-time inventory available.

The marketplace provides buyers with CARFAX Vehicle History Reports on listings, where available, that offer industry-leading background checks, and ownership history. The CARFAX Report can also show if the car has been in an accident, been written off, or used as a taxi or rental.

Users can directly sell their cars in the Autos Marketplace.
