AI phone assistant for car dealerships
SonaMotion answers every call at your dealership, understands the request in natural language and hands service bookings, parts enquiries and sales leads to the right department - 24/7, including Saturdays and after hours.
Why dealerships lose calls
Service advisors are at the counter, the parts desk is working through workshop orders, sales is in a consultation. Callers who reach a queue or voicemail rarely call back - they call a competitor. The assistant picks up instantly and hands over structured cases instead of sticky notes.
Service reception and workshop appointments
The assistant greets callers with your dealership name, identifies the vehicle by registration or VIN, asks structured questions about the job and offers two or three suitable slots. The chosen slot is booked into your workshop planner and confirmed by SMS or email.
- Inspection, oil change, tyre change, MOT, air-conditioning service
- Courtesy car, pick-up and delivery captured with the booking
- Breakdowns, accidents and red warning lights escalated to a person
- Reminder 24 hours before the appointment
Parts enquiries and sales leads
Parts requests are captured with vehicle, model year, VIN, part, quantity and delivery preference. Sales and leasing enquiries arrive qualified: model, budget range, financing preference, trade-in and callback time.
DMS integration and data protection
The assistant integrates with common dealership DMS platforms including FILAKS.PLUS, LOCOSOFT, CROSS and Vector, or via REST API and structured email handover. All conversations are processed in the EU, transmitted and stored encrypted.
