EBay Launches Local Car Classifieds

Online seller eBay Inc. on Wednesday launched a classified section designed to connect car buyers and sellers within a 100 mile radius of their local market.

San Jose-based eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY) said sellers can list up to six vehicles free for seven days during the launch.

“Our new format marries the renewed interest in used cars with the convenience of transacting locally,” said Rob Chesney, vice president, eBay Motors, Marketplaces.

The company said eBay Motors has about 12 million monthly unique visitors who can search local listings using criteria such as make, model year, color, pricing or mileage.
