vAuto iRecon
iRecon is vAuto's reconditioning-workflow product, tracking used vehicles through recon steps, vendors, approvals and cycle time to control the time and cost between acquisition and front-line ready. Confirm how it integrates with the DMS and vAuto inventory.
What this record establishes
vAuto iRecon is a vAuto product record mapped to inventory management. It sits in inventory, so the department that owns that workflow should lead the evaluation. vAuto fields 6 other named lines, so establish early whether vAuto iRecon is sold standalone or assumes the rest of the stack.
It does not assert a price, an integration, an OEM approval or a feature unless that fact has configuration-specific evidence. Ask the vendor to identify the current SKU, edition and order-form language before scoring it against anything.

Questions dealers ask about vAuto iRecon
What is vAuto iRecon?
vAuto iRecon is a named product or service line recorded against vAuto and mapped to inventory management. This record resolves the name to a provider and to the workflows it touches. It does not assert a feature list, a price, an integration or an OEM approval without configuration-specific evidence.
Who makes vAuto iRecon?
vAuto, which is owned by Cox Automotive. That matters commercially: ask which sibling products are prerequisites, which integrations are internal, and how renewal is quoted across the group.
How much does vAuto iRecon cost?
No universal price is published here, because 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.
Does vAuto iRecon integrate with my DMS?
That has to be established for your DMS and version, not from a directory record or a partner logo. Ask for direction, objects, refresh interval, ownership, support and fee in writing from both vAuto and your DMS provider, and compare the two answers.
Is vAuto iRecon sold on its own?
vAuto fields 6 other named lines. Ask explicitly which are prerequisites, which are bundled today but priced separately at renewal, and what changes commercially if you later drop one.
What should the demo prove?
Run one real workflow end to end, including an exception, using your data and your process. Record what is native, what is configured, what a partner delivers and what sits on a roadmap. Roadmap items are not features you are buying today.
What are the alternatives to vAuto iRecon?
Use the unranked category-peer page for vAuto to find companies covering the same workflows, then verify product, market, OEM, integration, implementation and commercial fit for each. No universal better option is named here.
How current is this record?
Each company record carries an evidence status and, at Verified status, a dated evidence packet naming the source that was checked. Product packaging changes more often than company scope, so confirm the current edition with the provider regardless of the record date.
