Automotive Inventory Ads for Dealerships

Automotive inventory ads (AIA) are Meta’s ad format that pulls vehicle data from your inventory feed and shows actual stock to buyers on Facebook and Instagram.

Therefore, when someone is in-market for a vehicle, your specific cars, caravans, motorcycles or trucks appear in their feed with real images, prices and details.

Automotive inventory ads are specifically built for vehicles. They include automotive-only attributes like make, model, body type and condition.

Meta catalogue ads work for parts, accessories and merchandise but don’t have those vehicle-specific features. We run both, depending on what your dealership sells.

Yes. We set up automotive inventory ads for your vehicle stock and Meta catalogue ads for your parts and accessories. Both connect to your feeds and update automatically, so every product is advertised without manual work.

We work with all major automotive feed providers including AutoGate, iMotor and others. Additionally, we set up custom product feeds for parts, accessories and merchandise. If your inventory is digital, we can connect it.

Yes. You own your Meta Business Manager, Commerce Manager, ad accounts and the catalogues we build inside them. Therefore, if you ever choose to work with someone else, everything stays with you.

We don’t do lock-in contracts. Furthermore, you can cancel any time. We believe dealerships should stay because the results are good, not because they’re stuck in a contract.

Ad spend depends on your inventory size, location and competition. Most dealerships start between $1,000 and $10,000 per month in ad spend. Additionally, our management fee is separate and transparent. We discuss budgets openly during your free consultation.

Setup takes 2 to 3 weeks from start to launch. This includes Commerce Manager setup, feed integration, catalogue mapping and Meta’s approval process. Once live, campaigns can start delivering within 24 to 48 hours.

Boosted posts show content to broad audiences with limited targeting. Automotive inventory ads show your actual stock to in-market buyers with full ad targeting, retargeting and conversion tracking. Therefore, AIA generates leads while boosted posts mostly generate likes.

Common reasons include missing catalogue attributes, broken image URLs, inaccurate pricing or restricted vehicle types. We audit your catalogue, fix every issue and resubmit so your inventory becomes advertisable on Meta.

Feed failures usually come from missing required fields, image quality issues, mismatched URLs or attribute formatting problems. Therefore, we troubleshoot every error, fix the root cause and keep your catalogue healthy so ads stay live.

Common reasons include weak targeting, poor creative, no clear call to action, missing pixel tracking or sending traffic to a slow dealership website. We rebuild your campaigns so every dollar has the best chance of converting.

Your competitor likely has a cleaner feed, better images, sharper pricing or smarter audience setup. Additionally, they may be testing more ad variations. We audit your setup and build campaigns that compete and win.

The best Facebook ads for car dealerships use automotive inventory ads to show real stock, combined with retargeting, lookalike audiences and strong creative. Furthermore, proper tracking with Meta Pixel and offline conversions ensures every campaign is measurable and profitable.

You need a Meta Business Manager, Commerce Manager, a properly structured vehicle catalogue and AIA campaigns. Additionally, your catalogue must include attributes like make, model, year, mileage, condition and price. We handle the entire setup from start to launch.

Improving performance comes down to feed quality, audience targeting, creative testing and accurate tracking.

Additionally, having a fast dealership website helps conversions. We optimise every element so your campaigns keep getting better month after month.

We work with car dealerships, caravan and RV dealers, motorcycle dealerships, truck dealers and even heavy machinery. Whether you sell new vehicles, used vehicles, or both, we understand how your customers search and optimise your Google Business Profile to capture those searches.
