Touring CarSelect ensures quality in fast-growing second-hand car market

One year after the acquisition of Touring alongside BNP Paribas Fortis, our ambition to leverage this acquisition to pursue new growth opportunities in the mobility market has already become a reality. In 2024 AG launched Touring CarSelect, an online sales platform offering only high-quality second-hand cars.

Through this online platform, Belgian customers can safely access a qualitative and sustainable range of recent second-hand and stock cars, offered exclusively by authorised professional dealers only, with the possibility to also take out insurance from AG in just a few clicks.

In 2023, Belgium witnessed the purchase of approximately 693,000 second-hand cars, significantly outpacing the 481,000 new cars sold. Today, over three out of every five registered cars are pre-owned, underscoring a clear growth trend in the market. However, historically, finding accessible and reliable independent information about second-hand vehicles has been a challenge. AG is now stepping in to address this need, bridging the gap with a trusted solution.

Quality assurance with customers in the driving seat 

In purchasing a second-hand vehicle, quality assurance matters more than anything else. Confidence in the dealer and the quality of the vehicles are decisive factors in purchasing decisions. Historically this kind of data has not been easy to find. Touring CarSelect enables this process, providing important peace of mind to customers and playing a vital role in the search for quality.

Listed cars are offered by authorised professional dealers meeting the strict criteria of the Touring quality charter, aimed at a sustainable offer of young second-hand and stock cars, each coming with a one-year warranty. Customers gain access to insurance services through AG, road-side assistance and advisory services via Touring, and financing options through BNP Paribas Fortis among other things. Consider it a mobility eco-system that leverages the vast experience of the three partners.
