MANHEIM – Beginning this week, Manheim will add 12 more sites to its pilot program for running cars down physical lanes. This change brings the total number of Manheim sites offering live, physical sales to 14. The added sites include: Manheim Ohio, Manheim Dallas, Manheim Fort Myers, Manheim Lakeland, Manheim Pittsburgh, Manheim San Antonio, Manheim Albany, Manheim Cincinnati, Manheim Dallas-Fort Worth, Manheim Omaha, Manheim Texas Hobby and Manheim Nevada.  

“During our first two live, physical sales at Manheim Nashville and Manheim Daytona Beach, we received very positive feedback from dealers who told us they were excited about the return of in-lane physical sales, despite running limited unit types,” said Alan Lang, Manheim division vice president. We continue to be intentional with our decision to expand the program with health and safety remaining at the center of everything we do.  Should the data continue to support a safe environment for team members and clients, we anticipate adding more locations.”
