“2021 was a transformative year for CarGurus as we evolved from a listings business to a transaction-enabled marketplace providing valuable cross-platform synergies to both our dealer partners and our industry-leading consumer audience. This was made possible with the acquisition of CarOffer, the launch of CarGurus Instant Max Cash Offer and the progression of our digital retail capabilities. These milestones were integral to the development of our end-to-end transaction-enabled marketplace. I’m thrilled to share that with these sizable new growth vectors and through the remarkable resiliency of our foundational listings business, CarGurus achieved exceptional results and exceeded our forecasted guidance for the fourth quarter and full-year 2021.”
