DMV Specialist

About Plug

Plug is an online marketplace built exclusively for electric vehicles, where consumers, dealers, and commercial partners trade in, sell, and auction used EVs. Consumers can get an instant cash offer in minutes, backed by data-driven pricing, battery state-of-health analysis, with pickup, payment, and title transfer handled end-to-end. Every vehicle Plug acquires is liquidated through a competitive wholesale auction, where franchise and independent dealers across the United States bid in real time on inventory sourced directly from consumers, dealers, and commercial partners. The result is a single platform that gives sellers a fast, fair exit and gives dealers a dedicated channel for sourcing used EV inventory. Founded in 2023 and led by former Tesla executives, Plug has facilitated nearly $100M in EV sales since launch and is backed by a $20M Series A from Lightspeed Venture Partners. Plug is and is building the AI-native transaction rails behind the used EV market's exponential growth. Visit to learn more plugmotors.com.
