ADESA, a business unit of KAR Auction Services, announced that the ADESA Indianapolis auction hosted the charity auction of a 2013 Porsche Cayenne Turbo that raised $77,000 for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF).
The Porsche was the first vehicle on the run list at the March sale at ADESA Indianapolis. The auction’s crowd, both in-lane and online, were larger than usual, in anticipation of this particular vehicle. The Porsche went to a customer in the lanes who had come to the sale from Nashville, Tenn.

“We’re humbled and honored to have this opportunity to again support JDRF’s mission,” said ADESA Indianapolis General Manager Dave Emerson. “When the dealer who owned this magnificent car approached me about this event, he knew of our long-standing support of JDRF and wanted to contribute in a personal way. We’re thrilled that the auction was able to bring in such a generous amount.”
This is just the latest entry on the list of JDRF efforts for Emerson. Last fall, he served as chairman of the local Indianapolis Walk to Cure Diabetes, which benefits JDRF. As part of that event, he raffled off a 1971 Pontiac GTO that was donated by ADESA Indianapolis. That raffle added $59,000 to the Walk to Cure Diabetes’ total intake.
The 2026 Conference of Automotive Remarketing convened with a mandate to involve a new constituency — fleet managers — and an updated mission to demonstrate unrealized value in de-fleeted vehicles.
From a Wall Street analyst's take on remarketing's key players to whether fleets need their own version of Carfax, CAR 2026's afternoon roundtables will answer key operational and industry questions.
The enhanced technology allows rental car operations, dealerships, and auctions to compare a vehicle’s condition at pickup and drop-off within the same rental or loaner record.
A panel at the 2026 Conference of Automotive Remarketing will examine how resale value is created across the vehicle lifecycle and which traditional remarketing practices still deliver ROI.
Smart operational and spec'ing decisions can dramatically improve both the total cost of ownership during use and the resale value when it's time to remarket day cabs.
How can vehicle-sourced performance data change the way fleets assess condition, time de-fleets, and set remarketing expectations? A seminar at the 2026 Conference of Automotive Remarketing (CAR) has answers.
