How to find a car with Car Handshake in ChatGPTCommon questions
Which vehicles appear on Car Handshake?
Car Handshake shows cars sent to us by dealerships in the United States and supported Canadian provinces. Quebec is not supported yet. Listings can change as dealerships update them.
How is distance calculated?
Distance is an estimate from the center of your ZIP or postal code to the dealership location. Open a car for directions and driving distance. Cars without a reliable location are left out of nearby results.
Is a test-drive request a confirmed appointment?
No. Your preferred time is a request until the selected dealership responds and confirms it.
Can a dealership pay for a higher position?
No. Dealerships cannot pay to move a car higher in your results. The active sort and filters determine the order you see.
