Exclusively at the Mall of Berlin: digital brand Autohero is opening its first stationary store

The focus of the new pop-up store lies on purchase advise for used vehicles with Autohero: visitors of the Mall of Berlin are invited to inform themselves about the brand and the online purchasing process, or even to find a suitable second-hand car. Appointments can also be made online free of charge via https://www.autohero.com/de/pop-upstore/ in advance. Customers who would like to trade in their car are being consulted by the employees and can benefit from a free offer at the store upon presenting the vehicle documents. As part of the pop-up store concept the Autohero truck made of glass is simulated, making the shopping experience even more tangible for potential customers: the truck bed is the center of attention and shows different vehicles of the online shop with integrated displays – just like delivering right in front of the doorstep.
“With the opening of our pop-up store at the Mall of Berlin we mark a new milestone for Autohero and, for the first time ever, are showing on-site and live how transparent, modern and comfortable it is to purchase used cars with us. We are proud to be able to represent our brand in such an innovative store concept and are looking forward to welcoming numerous customers at our store”,
says Hamza Saber, CEO of Autohero Germany.
“More and more brands are focusing on a multi-track retail strategy, such as the Berlin-based tech company Autohero. For the first time ever at a German shopping center, it is now possible to buy second-hand cars and furthermore benefit from a comprehensive consulting live on-site. Our international relevance as a shopping mall perfectly matches the brand Autohero, which is operating Europe-wide. We are proud to welcome Autohero as our second automotive player, beside Tesla, at our Mall of Berlin”,
says Harald Gerome Huth, owner and Managing Director of HGHI Holding GmbH.
