AutoFacets x carsale24
Against this backdrop, AutoFacets through TGC Capital Partners, a strategic investment arm of The Gateway Group has invested in carsale24.com, an online marketplace in Germany that is redefining used vehicle transactions.
carsale24.com connects private car sellers with verified professional dealers through a structured transaction process. AutoFacets, with over two decades of experience in automotive technology, will strengthen carsale24’s customer experience, technological foundation and expand its role beyond a transaction interface into a more connected ecosystem, not just in the DACH region, but beyond.
AutoFacets will lead the platform’s technology transformation, to build a structured digital supply funnel, delivering qualified listings and a streamlined path from listing to transaction close.
“We’re applying our technology and ecosystem depth to build the next generation of digital automotive platforms, one that works for every participant in the transaction, not just buyers and sellers. By combining carsale24.com platform ecosystem and AutoFacets’ digital expertise, the focus is on creating structured infrastructure that improves access, transparency, and transaction outcomes”
— Ashit Shah, CEO, AutoFacets
A Full Ecosystem, Not Just a Marketplace
The enhanced platform will go beyond listings. Inspection providers, and logistics partners, will be integrated into a single digital environment, reducing coordination friction and creating new service layers across the transaction journey. Private sellers will benefit from AI-driven tools, a simpler listing process, and a faster access to verified dealer demand.
The partnership also accelerates carsale24.com’s expansion into additional European markets, leveraging AutoFacets’ regional footprint and existing ecosystem relationships.
“Our platform was built on trust, between sellers and dealers. With AutoFacets and TGC Capital Partners, we can strengthen that foundation, expand the ecosystem, and deliver a meaningfully better experience for everyone involved.”
— Lars Häger, Managing Director, carsale24.com

For TGC Capital Partners, this investment is not limited to strengthening a single platform. It is a step toward building a more efficient and transparent automotive ecosystem. By combining carsale24.com’s dealer network and market presence with AutoFacets’ digital capabilities, the platform is positioned to address a persistent gap in the market: access to verified, high-quality vehicle supply from private sellers enabling a unique digital Customer Journey.
Vipin Moharir, Partner, TGC Capital Partners, said:
