Henrik Sachs and Lukasz Pajak, Founders said, “Cardino is dedicated to revolutionizing the used EV marketplace through its digital-first approach, making the process convenient and efficient for sellers and dealers,”.

Cardino gives auto dealerships a cutting-edge toolkit so they can find EVs quickly. The convenience of obtaining supplies from various marketplaces and the superior quality of cars with little mileage and no damage are dealers' greatest assets. For quality control, Cardino verifies sellers and looks over car history, condition, and battery records.

The website facilitates direct bidding and offers thorough car profiles, streamlining the purchasing process, producing competitive rates for purchasers, and bringing together buyers and sellers from other markets.

Nico Rosberg of Rosberg Ventures shared his excitement about the platform’s impact: “The future of cars is electric. For that, we need a sustainable used car market. Henrik, Lukasz and the entire Cardino team are doing pioneering work with their platform. Cardino is both efficient and transparent, setting new standards for the entire industry. That is why I am happy to support this mission as an investor.”

Cardino is still fully committed to innovation and sustainability in the automobile industry even as its services spread farther throughout Europe. Plans for 2024 call for improving the platform's functionality, like adding a patented online battery range check to create new standards in the EV market, and extending seller-side consumer services to France.
