CDK announced the extension of its agreement with Group 1 Automotive, to provide its U.S. franchise locations with the CDK Dealership Xperience, an open and integrated cloud-native platform that modernizes how dealers sell and service cars and operate their businesses in a digital world. As a close partner and early adopter of CDK, the extension allows Group 1 to further leverage the capabilities of the CDK Modern Retail Suite, which includes Digital Retailing, CRM, and F&I. Group 1 can also build, innovate and integrate apps and real-time workflows with APIs delivered through Fortellis ?the automotive industry?s leading developer platform. As of 2024, CDK software is relied upon to power the operations of the majority of franchise dealerships in North America, including five of the six publicly held dealership groups in the U.S.
