It is certainly an exciting time to be joining Carwow Group – both Gaurav and Dean bring fantastic experience and expertise in their specialist areas gained from working at leading global tech companies, and we are excited to see how they now help us shape Carwow’s future.
These appointments follow Carwow’s recent acquisition of Autovia, an automotive content and commerce media company.
Autovia, which reaches over 15 million car owners, buyers, and enthusiasts monthly through its various print and digital titles, is expected to significantly enhance Carwow’s outreach and capabilities within the UK market.
The acquisition of Autovia, which includes respected titles such as Auto Express, evo, DrivingElectric, Carbuyer, and the annual automotive satisfaction survey, Driver Power, is seen as a strategic move to augment Carwow’s audience reach and content offerings.
