Carvana is an online used car retailer based in Tempe, Arizona.[1] The company is known for its multi-story car vending machines, and in 2018 it was reported to be the fastest growing used car dealer in the United States.[2][3]
History[edit]
Carvana was founded by Ernest Garcia III, Ryan Keeton and Ben Huston in 2012. The company's initial funding round came from the used car retailer and finance company, DriveTime.[4]
In November 2013, Carvana opened its first iteration of a car vending machine. In 2015, a fully automated, coin-operated version of the signature car vending machine opened in Nashville, Tennessee.[3]
In April 2017, the company went public and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol CVNA.[5]
As of May 2020, Carvana's as-soon-as-next day delivery was available in 261 markets across the country.[6] In Q2 of 2020, the company reported a 25% increase in vehicle sales, as a result of physical dealership sellers being closed as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. Carvana's had a gross revenue of $1.12 billion, up 13% for the months April–June 2020.[7]
Business[edit]
Carvana operates as an online-only used car dealer that allows customers to shop, finance, and sell or trade-in cars through their website.[8][9][10] The company gives customers the option of having their purchased vehicles delivered to them or they can choose to pick them up at one of the company's 24 car vending machines.[9] Vehicles come with a seven-day return policy.[11] In response to COVID-19, Carvana introduced touchless delivery and pick-up in March 2020.[12]
The Houston Chronicle dubbed the company the “Amazon of Auto”.[13] In 2019, it sold 177,549 vehicles and posted annual revenue of $3.94 billion, making it the third largest used-car retailer in the U.S.[14]
Acquisitions[edit]
In 2017 Carvana acquired rival automotive startup Carlypso to enhance vehicle data and analytical tools.[15] In April 2018, Carvana spent $22 million to acquire Mark Cuban-backed Car360 for its smartphone technology for taking vehicle photos with 3D computer vision, machine learning, and augmented reality.[16][17]
Sponsorships[edit]
Carvana is a sponsor of the National Hockey League's Carolina Hurricanes, USL Championship's Phoenix Rising Football Club since 2018,[18] and IndyCar Series driver Jimmie Johnson since 2021.[19]

In computing, object model has two related but distinct meanings:
- The properties of objects in general in a specific computer programming language, technology, notation or methodology that uses them. Examples are the object models of Java, the Component Object Model (COM), or Object-Modeling Technique (OMT). Such object models are usually defined using concepts such as class, generic function, message, inheritance, polymorphism, and encapsulation. There is an extensive literature on formalized object models as a subset of the formal semantics of programming languages.
- A collection of objects or classes through which a program can examine and manipulate some specific parts of its world. In other words, the object-oriented interface to some service or system. Such an interface is said to be the object model of the represented service or system. For example, the Document Object Model (DOM) [1] is a collection of objects that represent a page in a web browser, used by script programs to examine and dynamically change the page. There is a Microsoft Excel object model [2] for controlling Microsoft Excel from another program, and the ASCOM Telescope Driver [3] is an object model for controlling an astronomical telescope.
An object model consists of the following important features:
- Object Reference
- Objects can be accessed via object references. To invoke a method in an object, the object reference and method name are given, together with any arguments.
- Interfaces
- An interface provides a definition of the signature of a set of methods without specifying their implementation. An object will provide a particular interface if its class contains code that implement the method of that interface. An interface also defines types that can be used to declare the type of variables or parameters and return values of methods.
- Actions
- An action in object-oriented programming (OOP) is initiated by an object invoking a method in another object. An invocation can include additional information needed to carry out the method. The receiver executes the appropriate method and then returns control to the invoking object, sometimes supplying a result.
- Exceptions
- Programs can encounter various errors and unexpected conditions of varying seriousness. During the execution of the method many different problems may be discovered. Exceptions provide a clean way to deal with error conditions without complicating the code. A block of code may be defined to throw an exception whenever particular unexpected conditions or errors arise. This means that control passes to another block of code that catches the exception.
