\n Recent surveys conducted by Jefferies reveal a significant trend: U.S. consumers increasingly prefer to buy and sell their vehicles online. This shift is expected to greatly benefit Carvana. Colantuoni noted, “The results of our consumer survey, proprietary web scape, and capacity analysis all support CVNA continuing to deliver elevated growth and upside to consensus.” He emphasized that fixed cost leverage will further enhance revenue growth, contributing to improved unit economics and leading to peer-high EBITDA growth.\n <\/p>\n
