Thai online classifieds platform Kaidee has launched a new and improved dedicated car marketplace called RodKaidee.

The channel will be monitored by Kaidee customer representatives, who will answer enquiries via phone calls or text messages. Users will be able to search for cars via their make, car type, model, year, and engine type, and price range. RodKaidee will be available on desktop and mobile.

Currently, there are already over 70,000 cars on sale in at Kaidee. According to an official press release, over 16,000 cars are sold on the marketplace per month, at a total average value of THB 4 million (US$115,000).

Last year, York told the Bangkok Post that he aims to increase Kaidee’s sellers to two million. In 2015, the platform logged an average of 650,000 visitors per month. A total of 8.6 million listings were posted in the whole of 2015.
