Used car shoppers in the Central Valley may not have to leave their homes with the help of a growing e-commerce platform.

Carvana, a platform for the sale, purchase and financing of used cars, announced last week that they are now in business in Fresno, making it the 81st market for them in the United States, and the sixth in California.

“As we expand coast-to-coast, growing our reach in California is increasingly important,” Carvana CEO and founder Ernie Garcia said. “Fresno is a major city in the Central Valley, and we’re looking forward to showing their growing population the new way to buy a car.”

Shoppers are able to choose from over 10,000 cars on the Phoenix-based platform’s website and can order by phone and computer. According to a news release, Fresno shoppers will be offered as-soon-as-next-day delivery on a purchase. The used cars selected by Carvana have no frame damage, and have never been reported in an accident.

Carvana actually features more than a dozen multi-story, coin-operated car vending machines in some cities including Tempe, Arizona; Dallas, Texas; Nashville, Tennessee; and Tampa, Florida.

People who purchase cars online may opt to retrieve their vehicle from a vending machine, and may even be eligible for up to $200 in subsidized air travel from Carvana.
