AutoNation is one of the largest automotive retailers in the United States, operating franchised dealerships that sell approximately 30 vehicle brands—including Toyota, Honda, Ford, General Motors, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz—across major metropolitan markets. Beyond vehicle sales, the company operates collision centers, used vehicle stores, parts distribution, mobile repair services, and a captive auto finance company that provides indirect financing and protection products to customers. Revenue comes from new and used vehicle sales, after-sales parts and service (a higher-margin, more stable business segment), and finance and insurance products, with the company serving millions of customers primarily concentrated in the Sunbelt region.
