"Test-Drive, Delivered to Your Door" — How Epikar Is Redefining Automotive Trial Experiences​

“Wherever the customer is, that’s the new test-drive center.”​ ​ EPIKAR, a mobility tech company and official partner of Renault, is revolutionizing the way test drives are conducted. Through its mobility brand EPIK Mobility, the company has launched an on- demand test-drive service where vehicles are delivered directly to the customer's location—offering a powerful combination of innovation and emotional connection within the automotive distribution industry.​​

​ ​ ■ From Hospitals to Offices and Cafés — Personalized Test Drives That Come to You​​
​ This new service goes beyond a simple vehicle demo—it offers a deeply personalized mobility experience tailored to each customer’s daily routine. Using an online platform, customers can request a test-drive in real-time, and the designated vehicle is delivered to the location of their choosing, whether it's their home, workplace, a café, or even a hospital.​​

​ ​ This level of flexibility has been made possible thanks to EPIKAR's proprietary technology. Leveraging years of data, the company developed advanced systems including predictive customer- movement analytics, customized routing algorithms, and a real-time vehicle operation system. This enables precise, nationwide test-drive scheduling and a hyper-personalized experience for each customer.​​

​ ​ ■ “I Was in a Hospital Bed — and the Car Came to Me”​​
​ One recent story has captured widespread attention. A customer requested a test drive at a hospital. At first, staff assumed it was for a hospital employee. However, the individual who greeted the delivery staff was a patient in a hospital gown. Despite being hospitalized after an accident, he urgently needed a car. Unable to leave the hospital, a typical test-drive wasn't feasible—but thanks to EPIK Mobility, he was able to inspect the car right outside the hospital, and after discharge, purchased the same model to drive home.​​

​ ​ The customer, identified as Mr. Han Yunha (pseudonym, age 42), said:​​
​ ​ "Even in my difficult condition, I received a service that felt tailored just for me. It wasn’t just about the car—it felt like the brand truly understood me, like a companion."​​

​ ​ ■ A Brand That Comes to You — Not the Other Way Around​​
​ An EPIKAR spokesperson stated:​​
​ “We are a company that connects people through technology. True digital transformation isn’t about making customers come to us—it’s about us going to them.”​

​​ “We aim to shape a new culture in mobility by offering experiences tailored to each individual’s lifestyle.”​​

​ ​ EPIK Mobility’s on-demand test-drive service represents more than just convenience—it’s a fusion of technology and empathy that redefines the customer experience. Going forward, EPIKAR plans to set a new standard in future mobility by offering the most personalized automotive experiences for Renault customers.​
