With around-the-clock pick up availability, vehicles purchased on Carvana.com will be available for test drive and pick up as early as 24-hours. To date, consumers have purchased and financed their cars on Carvana in as little as 15 minutes.
The vending machine is located in Atlanta's West Midtown neighborhood and boasts three bays that allow for simultaneous pickups. Company representatives will be available onsite to answer any questions that customers may have in regards to their new vehicle, if needed.
