Season 4 has come to a close – and what a season it has been! Three new winners have stepped up to the podium, proving that strong leadership, clear processes, and an unwavering focus on improvement can make a real difference in the used car business. For the first time, we also have a UK-based winner – clear evidence that our shared approach works across borders. It’s becoming increasingly difficult to maintain diamond status as more dealerships compete for top positions. Here’s a closer look at this season’s top-performing dealerships:
1. Sinclair Mercedes Swansea – First UK Winner Sinclair Mercedes in Swansea makes history as the first UK winner in our benchmarking process. With impressive structure, high transparency, and a team completely in sync, the dealership has demonstrated that successful used car flows are possible regardless of the market. There’s clear ownership at every stage, from trade-in to delivery – something that has made a strong impression. The team in Swansea is setting the standard for more UK dealerships to join the journey towards a more efficient used car process.
2. Din Bil Mölnvik – Stability and Top-Class Efficiency Din Bil Mölnvik continues to impress, now taking the top spot in Sweden. During Season 4, the dealership has further refined its processes with a particular focus on reducing wait times. With a wholehearted focus on used cars, clear prioritization, and strong teamwork, Mölnvik is a textbook example of how consistent effort pays off. Göran Berg and his team prove that long-term commitment brings results.
3. Hedin Automotive Uppsala – Back at the Top After a first-place finish in Season 3, Hedin Automotive Uppsala is back on the podium – showing that their success is no coincidence. Communication, structure, and pace are the key words describing their approach. It’s clear the dealership fully prioritizes used cars, resulting in short lead times and satisfied customers. A clear demonstration that continuity and strong ownership make a difference.
More Challengers Emerging Season 4 has also brought increased engagement from several new dealerships, both in Sweden and abroad. It’s encouraging to see more and more sites challenging the previous top performers – a promising sign for Season 5. We look forward to continuing the journey, highlighting the best examples, and inspiring more dealerships to take the next step in their used car process.
