The appointments guide
Test drives, the safer way.
Safer locations, readiness checks, and less back-and-forth before either side leaves home.
Three promises
Why ACar appointments feel different.
Safer public locations
ACar points buyers and sellers toward safer public exchange locations instead of leaving both sides to improvise a meeting spot.
Readiness checks before the appointment
Identity, license, insurance, and appointment terms are handled where required so the meeting is not the first time important details come up.
Calendar that respects you
Pick windows that work, see real availability, and reschedule without the back-and-forth.
