A product record resolves a name to a provider and maps it to dealer workflows. It does not establish that Mobility Global Retail Pricing Intelligence (Market Scan) and VinSolutions Connect Automotive Intelligence have equivalent features, that either is available in your market or OEM program, that either integrates with your DMS at the field level, or what either costs in your configuration. Product-family names routinely cover materially different editions — the same name can mean different software in two stores.

Settle these before comparing features
The two records describe different primary markets — Mobility Global is recorded as Worldwide and VinSolutions as US & Canada. Confirm both are actually sold, supported and contracted in your country and state before anything else, because a market mismatch settles the comparison on its own.
Typical segment differs: Mobility Global is recorded against franchise and independent dealers and VinSolutions against franchise and groups. Segment is a description of who a provider usually serves, not a restriction. Ask each for a reference at your rooftop count and franchise mix rather than assuming the record excludes you.
One side is part of a larger group and the other is not
VinSolutions is owned by Cox Automotive; Mobility Global is not part of that group. That difference usually shows up in three places: which integrations are internal and therefore cheap, how much of your stack ends up under a single contract and a single renewal, and how much leverage you keep at renewal. Neither structure is better in the abstract. Ask VinSolutions what is bundled and what is separately licensed, and ask Mobility Global what it costs to connect to the systems you already run.

Mobility Global Retail Pricing Intelligence (Market Scan) vs VinSolutions Connect Automotive Intelligence FAQ
What is the difference between Mobility Global Retail Pricing Intelligence (Market Scan) and VinSolutions Connect Automotive Intelligence?
Mobility Global Retail Pricing Intelligence (Market Scan) comes from Mobility Global and VinSolutions Connect Automotive Intelligence from VinSolutions. Both are mapped to dealer intelligence & bi in this directory. The difference that decides the purchase is the edition on the order form, the integrations live for your DMS, who implements it and what the three-year cost is — none of which a directory can settle for your store.
Are Mobility Global Retail Pricing Intelligence (Market Scan) and VinSolutions Connect Automotive Intelligence the same kind of product?
They are mapped to the same workflow ground (dealer intelligence & bi), which is why they appear together here. Shared category means comparable purpose, not comparable capability.
Which one integrates with my DMS?
Ask both providers to state it in writing for your DMS and version: direction, data objects, refresh interval, who owns the connection, who supports it when it breaks, and the fee. Then ask your DMS provider the same questions. A partner logo is not a scope statement.
How much does each cost?
Neither price is published here. Dealership software is quoted per configuration, and the same named product can differ several-fold between two stores. Request modules and quantities, implementation, integration and usage fees, initial term, renewal mechanic, annual increase and exit cost — from both, in the same format.
Do I have to buy the rest of the provider's stack?
Ask directly. Mobility Global and VinSolutions both field other named lines, and the answer that matters is which of them are prerequisites, which are bundled at no extra cost today but priced separately at renewal, and what happens commercially if you later drop one.
Can I run both?
Running two products in dealer intelligence & bi usually creates duplicate entry and an unclear source of truth. If you are considering both, decide which one owns each record before signing either.
What should the demo prove?
The same workflow, in the same order, on both — including the exception case. Record what is native, what is configured, what a partner delivers and what is on a roadmap. Anything on a roadmap is not a feature you are buying today.
Where does this page stop?
At the order form. It compares documented scope and gives you the questions. What either provider will actually quote, support and deliver comes from a written proposal and a reference running your DMS and OEM.
