Work Truck Solutions Partners with Impel to Bring Advanced Digital Merchandising Technology to the Commercial Vehicle Industry


CHICO, CA and SYRACUSE, NY – November 17, 2020 – Work Truck Solutions, a leading  provider of digital marketing solutions for commercial dealers, and Impel, the global leader in digital vehicle merchandising software, announced today a partnership that will bring virtual 360° WalkArounds® to commercial vehicle retailers across the country. Impel is the first and only digital merchandising platform provider to offer commercial sellers the ability to deliver this enhanced buyer experience on dealer websites powered by Work Truck Solutions and on Comvoy.com, the leading online marketplace dedicated to work-ready trucks and vans. Commercial buyers visiting these sites will now be able to explore every aspect of a vehicle’s chassis, body and upfit in a personalized, interactive format. Impel’s 360° WalkArounds feature clickable hotspots, undercarriage images and damage tags that bring greater levels of transparency to the shopping process by enabling buyers to explore every aspect of a vehicle directly from their laptop, tablet or mobile device.

Work Truck Solutions tracks commercial vehicle configuration data, and thus can provide custom websites, marketing services and lead generation tools designed to help commercial vehicle buyers find their next work truck. The company serves OEMs, body and equipment manufacturers, distributors and installers, and commercial vehicle dealers from all major brands across the United States. The company also operates Comvoy.com – a national online marketplace dedicated to commercial truck buyers.

The company’s platform is used by thousands of retailers, wholesalers and online marketplaces around the globe to deliver personalized, immersive online experiences to shoppers throughout the buying journey. Impel’s 360° WalkAround® and Shopper Intelligence solutions bring greater levels of engagement, transparency and interactivity to the vehicle buying process while generating proprietary, first-party behavioral data that enables personalization at scale.
