AI Voice Assistant for Automotive
Service inquiries and test-drive requests come in while your team is already with a customer or under a car — and the caller who can't get through just dials the dealership down the road. A TUGADOT AI receptionist answers every call in seconds, books service appointments and test drives straight into your calendar, and captures sales leads 24/7 so no opportunity rolls off the lot.
Service inquiries and test drive requests happen when your team is with customers.
Why dealerships and workshops are putting an AI on the phones
In automotive, the phone rings hardest exactly when nobody can pick it up — your advisors are at the desk, your techs are on a hoist, and your salespeople are walking the yard. The result is a steady leak of high-intent calls: industry data shows roughly 75% of callers who don't reach a live person on the first attempt never call back, they simply ring the next dealership. With service work and vehicle sales each worth hundreds to thousands of dollars, those unanswered rings add up fast — analyses of dealership call data put the service revenue at risk at well over $850,000 a year for a typical store. A TUGADOT AI voice assistant answers instantly, books service bookings and test drives into your system, answers parts and pricing questions, and qualifies sales enquiries around the clock — so your team sells and services while the phone takes care of itself.
