Carvolution Makes Life Simple - Ralph Keller Talks About the All-Inclusive Subscription

As a business owner, Ralph values clear and transparent costs. With Carvolution, he found the perfect solution to always keep track of all his expenses. More personal impressions and opinions can be found in this blog.

How did you come across Carvolution?

That was about two years ago when I randomly came across an online article. The name stuck with me.

What happened next?

In March 2024, I needed a new car because my old one had to be replaced. I started looking into various options, and that’s when Carvolution came back to mind. It was the perfect time to take a closer look at the offer, so I decided to get a non-binding consultation.

Had you already decided on a car, or did you choose the subscription first?

At first, I focused on finding the best solution for acquiring a car. After deciding against buying and leasing and choosing Carvolution, I started thinking about which car would be best. My main criteria were sufficient space and four-wheel drive.

Did you request multiple offers?

I asked Carvolution for a specific offer for the Audi A4. The price-performance ratio convinced me, and that’s the car I’m driving now.

Why did you ultimately choose Carvolution?

The price-performance ratio and transparent costs were the deciding factors. As a self-employed person, it makes my life much easier when I only receive one bill that covers everything. It significantly simplifies the management.

Would it have been different with purchasing or leasing?

Yes, I even had a full-service leasing offer. But the price-performance ratio at Carvolution was much better. Plus, the contact with the people there was very friendly, which made the decision easier.

Have you always bought cars before? Why switch to a subscription now?

In the past, I mostly bought year-old or used cars. Now, due to the uncertain political situation regarding transportation, I opted for a car subscription. It’s hard to predict the future of electric and combustion engines. Since I drive a lot on the highway, a diesel engine makes sense, but that’s not the direction the automotive industry is heading. Carvolution’s offer came at the right time.

How does the car subscription make your life easier?

I used to have all these administrative tasks to handle: insurance, bills for services and tire changes, registering the car – I not only had to pay for it all but also organize it myself. With the subscription, I only have one transparent bill and save myself all the administrative hassle.

How do you find the costs of the car subscription?

I did the math thoroughly since I manage my own accounting as a self-employed person, and I know exactly what a car costs me per year. The subscription wasn’t more expensive because I factored in all the costs – not least the depreciation. Many private individuals often forget about these hidden costs.

So you don’t find the car subscription expensive?

Cars are always expensive. The good thing about the subscription is that the costs are clear and fully transparent because they are listed on the monthly bill. When buying a car, the costs are often more hidden – especially depreciation, which only becomes apparent later when you try to sell the car after a few years.

How was your contact with the Carvolution team?

Very positive! As a sales trainer, I’m particularly sensitive to this, but the personal contact was always friendly. From the first phone call to the car handover, everything was professional and warm. I’m curious to see how the return will go, but I’m confident.

Do you have any suggestions for improvement or requests?

No, just stay as friendly as you are. It’s really convenient with Carvolution!
