About Plug
Plug is the industry’s first EV-exclusive wholesale online auction platform.
EVs’ functionality, longevity, and value depend on factors like range, computer hardware, software-enabled features, destination charging networks, tax credits, and battery health. But in today’s market, most EVs are bought and sold using processes and data sources built for ICE vehicles. EV-specific information is generally absent or inaccurate, which is a disadvantage to most buyers and suppresses residual values.
Backed by world-class venture capital firms with deep expertise in automotive marketplaces, and founded by the former head of North America Remarketing at Tesla, Plug makes buying qand selling used EVs faster, more transparent, and more profitable for dealers.
