The deal gives customers a hassle-free path to purchase, with an easy online financing application and soft-pull tools that do not affect credit scores. These enhancements to the purchasing process along with the new relationship with Octane’s inhouse lender, Roadrunner Financial Inc., make it possible for dealers to offer competitive rates and even more flexible terms than before.
Octane has been in the business of optimizing powersports financing since 2014, giving dealers in numerous markets the tools and support they’ve needed to thrive.
“We’re thrilled to partner with UBCO to bring our seamless buying experience to even more enthusiasts and to fuel our customers’ lifestyles in an environmentally friendly way,” said Jason Guss, CEO and co-founder of Octane, in a company press release. “The EV industry allows us to merge technology, sustainability, and innovation while tapping into a rapidly expanding market and delivering on our mission to connect people with their passions.”
UBCO’s Chief Revenue Office Phil Harrison added, “UBCO wants to get more people on two wheels than ever before. Up to 92 percent of Americans currently don’t participate in powersports and we want to change that by providing approachable, easy-to-ride vehicles that expand powersports to the masses. Octane’s purely digital experience is a key part of the value proposition to our customers.”
