The structure provides a fully digital interactive experience complete with floor-to-ceiling windows, custom LED lighting, flat screen TVs and interactive keypads that identify customers based on unique buyer credentials provided by Carvana after the purchase has been completed. In November 2015, Carvana unveiled the world's first fully automated, coin-operated car vending machine in Nashville. After completing vehicle purchases online, Carvana customers can opt for home delivery or pick-up from the company's vending machine locations in Atlanta or Nashville. If customers elect to pick up their newly purchased car in Nashville, they are given a customized coin that they drop into a customized coin slot. Once dropped into the slot, the coin initiates the car retrieval process, triggering a robotic arm that goes and grabs the customer's online purchase. When the car comes down, it is transferred to another robot that drives the car down a hallway and parks it in a delivery bay, where the customer receives their purchase and is free to take it home. The five-story glass tower can hold up to 20 cars at a time. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carvana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
