OVE.com (Online Vehicle Exchange) is Cox’s digital wholesale platform that aggregates used inventory and powers online bidding and buy‑now for licensed wholesale buyers, typically alongside an AuctionACCESS credential.

Dealertrack provides dealership back‑office and front‑office software: DMS, F&I, e‑contracting, registration and title workflows, and connected programs for lenders and finance sources.

Market-informed guidance for used-vehicle acquisition, appraisal, pricing and stocking, evaluated against a dealership’s own costs and objectives.

Xtime is Cox’s fixed operations product line for online and in‑lane service scheduling, shop loading, and customer communications so dealerships capture more of the after‑sales market.

Central Dispatch is a self‑managed vehicle transportation marketplace where shippers post moves and carriers bid and take loads—commonly used by dealers, auctions, and logistics teams.

NextGear Capital provides inventory financing (floor plan) to independent and franchise dealers, especially around auction acquisition and in‑line floor needs.

Ready Logistics is managed vehicle transportation: Cox handles planning, execution, and carrier network execution for many dealer, auction, and large‑volume shippers, versus a pure self‑serve load board model.

Cox Fleet unites FleetNet America and Fleet Services–style programs into one Cox Automotive fleet line: keep medium‑ and heavy‑duty and mixed fleets moving with service network and roadside, not car‑buying retail software.

Cox’s EV Battery Solutions business provides lifecycle support for high‑voltage batteries: service centers, diagnostics, repair, remanufacturing, and recycling aligned with OEM, dealer, and fleet EV programs.

Clutch (Clutch Technologies) is Cox’s flexible ownership platform: vehicles as a subscription or short‑term access product, white‑label for OEM, large dealer group, and fleet mobility programs.

Fyusion is a computer vision and immersive imaging company acquired by Cox to deepen wholesale and retail condition capture—think walkarounds, damage, 360s, and faster digital remarketing for Manheim and partners.

Cox Automotive Europe (often coxautoinc.eu) is the regional home for Manheim, Dealer Auction, RMS, NextGear, and related EU/UK go‑to‑market, separate from the U.S. product URLs but part of the same group.
