The auto buying resource comes complete with all the customized marketing support materials to communicate with members right away. GrooveCar Direct and CU Xpress Lease are the perfect programs for any credit union looking for auto loan growth. All the tools members are looking for, when making decisions and exploring options, including trade-in values, loan calculator, refinance calculator, build vehicles and save searches, online loan pre-approval and more, are built-in. New features introduced this year such as the Kelley Blue Book® Price Advisor tool, provides the Fair Market Range of vehicles found throughout more than 3 million vehicles in inventory listed. Understanding how others are shopping for vehicles will give the member a distinct advantage.

Auto leasing through CU Xpress Lease provides credit unions with the ability to remain competitive at the point of sale. When financial options are being weighed, leasing is often the most viable choice when the member is reviewing their needs, especially as it relates to monthly payment. This is often the most important concern a consumer will have. Credit unions with a leasing program can now be competitive 100 percent of the time. In many regions of the U.S., leasing can account for up to 70% of transactions, the national average is 30%. Providing this choice to consumers and dealers will keep the credit union competitive throughout the process. Providing an option for dealers to use another lease lender with lower payments than captives will lead to incremental growth and make the credit union significant at the point of sale.  "As a result, our credit union partners are projected to fund $1billion in lease volume in 2018 and we envision this getting stronger as we enter additional markets. Leasing continues to grow in popularity with consumers, especially millennials. It's exciting for us to inform credit unions of our program and its potential, so please stop by our booth to find out more," O'Hara adds.
