CarGurus dealer inventory feed

CarGurus shoppers compare deal ratings and inventory side by side. AutoFire sends a structured CSV with the vehicle facts and imagery you already maintain—price, miles, options, and detail URLs—so your listings read consistently with your website. Your account manager may fine-tune required columns for your store.

No. AutoFire generates inventory exports from your data; CarGurus controls how vehicles surface and perform in its marketplace.
