8. _Solution
Insight: I’m too busy for having a test-drive because it’s too difficult - I have to
find time from 10:00 to 21:00, to make a call or sign up online, these sites require
the registration and it’s a too long process. Usually the dealerships don’t have
the necessary version of the car for a test-drive
Idea: to propose TA test-drive any time they like - all DS Line cars will be
available 24 hours during 4 days
Implementation: OMD created the online system for very easy test-drive
signing up and the version for mobile devices
