Los Angeles — September 12, 2018 — RelayCars, the virtual reality automotive experience that puts users in the driver’s seat of thousands of vehicles, today announced a series of updates that will continue to aid these consumers in the car buying process. With a new host of features, these updated visual enhancements, optimizations and custom showrooms will provide the most immersive and accurate experience available for those looking to get a detailed look at their potential new car.

As recent automotive studies show, 62% of purchasers would rather research cars online than speak with a salesperson, while 75% of shoppers go through up to four phases of online research before physically going out to look at cars. Now, from the comfort of their homes and with no headset required, car buyers have the power to experience vehicle category, year, make and model from RelayCars’ most expansive and high-quality VR automotive library on the market.

The application allows users to view interior panos and exterior spins for any vehicle selected. The VR library includes top-of-the-line technology and almost every car and truck on the market since 2015, giving users an up-to-date view of the latest cars in a realistic environment. Other key updates include:

New perspective controls to ensure the best view of the vehicles
Asset optimizations to reduce download times
A ‘featured vehicles’ section that is continuously updated to highlight a curated collection of cars

“At RelayCars, we are constantly evolving our products to reflect the most current, up-to-date technology and features available on the market,” said David Falstrup, RelayCars CEO. “We are excited to present this new range of updates that will further enhance our user experience.” RelayCars is available now for free on iOS, Android, Oculus Go, Google Daydream, Samsung Gear VR and Microsoft MR.
