About Car Trader Simulator - Welcome to the Business

✦ AI summary

Run a car dealership empire where you buy, sell, and trade vehicles at auctions while managing employees and choosing between legitimate business or cutting corners with stolen cars and shady deals. Balance your reputation, invest wisely in repairs and marketing, and navigate dynamic city districts with an extensive branching story that rewards both honest dealers and cunning hustlers.

Car Trader Simulator - Welcome to the Business is a prologue to the full version of the game "Car Trader Simulator"

Do you know how to profit from trading cars while maintaining a good reputation? Car Trader Simulator lets you play the role of an American car dealer. Your goal is to get rich. How you do it depends entirely on you. It is your choice whether you will sell efficient and original cars, or whether you will use the black market and stolen vehicles to dabble in the illegal.

The difficulty of the game. Which one do you choose?

You can choose one of 3 difficulty levels. The easy and medium ones are the best choice for people starting their adventure with games of this type, and the highest level has been designed for economic simulators veterans. The latter is distinguished by a complete lack of hints, which leaves the player to depend on his instinct and experience alone.

The dream employee. How do you find one?

While your company grows, you will also need new people to work. An extensive system of employment and staffing will facilitate your work and accelerate the company's growth. Employees differ based on their experience, specialization and employment cost.

The story. Who will you become?

The story of the game is very extensive and allows you to go through the campaign in various ways. You can be a law-abiding and responsible dealer who, using the experience gained while working with his uncle in his youth, will dynamically expand the business and ensure the satisfaction of his customers. The opposite choice will allow you to use the cheapest solutions when repairing and selling cars to deceive your customers and earn large amounts of cash as soon as possible. There will also be the possibility of stealing a vehicle at the request of shady customers.

Economy and marketing. What will you invest in?

There are many economic choices ahead of you. Invest in new employees, repair some cars for additional profit, or maybe advertise? This system will allow you to feel like a real business owner, one that in many situations has difficult choices to make on how to invest his earned fortune to double it in the future. Or you just might lose it all as well.

Map handling system and personnel management.

Car Trader Simulator has a map and an employee management system. You can specify exactly which streets our employees can travel, who will transport and repair purchased (or stolen) cars, etc. In addition, the events system will allow you to diversify the game with unexpected events or activities taking place in the city. To make it easier to navigate the map, it has been divided into distinctive sections which offer various game mechanics (and refer to the names of widely known districts of the USA).

Auctions

Each car in the game will be negotiable for the right price on one of the three available markets. Every few minutes new cars will appear on auction alongside a group of people willing to pay for the best models. Not only will you need to have cash, but you will also have to bid wisely to get the most from the auctioned vehicle.

Direct sales

Having a good car for sale is only half the battle, the other half is dealing with the customer and meeting his expectations. With each conversation, you will get guidelines on what the customer expects from you. Your task is not only to sell the car but also to make the buyer happy so that he becomes a returning customer.

Real car photos

The game has a giant library of real car photos. Each set of photos is a complete set with vintages and models of a given car, additionally available in any color combination.

✦ AI summary

Car Trader Simulator - Welcome to the Business receives mixed feedback from players. Some appreciate the core business simulation mechanics, finding the gameplay engaging when buying low, repairing, and reselling vehicles to expand their operation, though they note the game feels somewhat rough around the edges with limited environmental detail and NPC interactions. Others criticize the forced story pacing that doesn't allow player agency, calling the overall experience boring with poor map design and rushed decision-making that leads to undesirable consequences.

Car Trader Simulator - Welcome to the Business takes the familiar idea of buying cheap and selling high and turns it into an automotive management experience. Developed by Live Motion Games and published by Live Motion Games alongside PlayWay S.A., this free prologue serves as an introduction to the larger Car Trader Simulator experience. Instead of focusing on driving cars, it puts you behind the desk of a growing dealership, where financial judgment, negotiation, vehicle selection, and business management determine whether your operation succeeds. The basic gameplay revolves around acquiring vehicles at favorable prices and reselling them for a worthwhile profit. Auctions are an important part of this process, and bidding requires some restraint. A promising vehicle can quickly become a poor investment when competing bids push its price beyond what you can realistically recover. Since your available money determines what opportunities you can pursue afterward, every purchase carries some financial weight. The satisfaction comes from finding a potentially valuable vehicle, securing it without overspending, and eventually turning it into a profitable sale. There is more to the bu…

rushed

Not recommended Jan 8, 2026

I don't recommend Car Trader Simulator - Welcome to the Business at all because there is a forced and boring story. You can't switch the options or wait. The customer or story take actions before I make the decisions. Rush decisions brought undesirable consequences. The overall game play is boring and the display of the map is narrow and bad-looking.

Игра 'Car Trader Simulator - Welcome to the Business' предлагает достаточно интересную, хоть и немного сырую, симуляцию автобизнеса. Геймплей затягивает возможностью находить выгодные предложения, ремонтировать и перепродавать автомобили, постепенно расширяя свой бизнес. Первоначальный этап, когда ты начинаешь с небольшого склада и скромного бюджета, особенно захватывающий. Погружение могло быть лучше, есть нехватка деталей в оформлении окружения и поведении NPC. Физика автомобилей простая, но соответствует аркадному стилю игры. Система ремонта хоть и базовая, добавляет реализма процессу перепродажи. Несмотря на недостатки, игра обладает потенциалом. Наличие базовой механики торга и возможность влиять на цену позволяют применять навыки убеждения. Если разработчики продолжат развивать проект, добавляя больше деталей и углубляя геймплей, 'Car Trader Simulator' может стать отличным представителем жанра. Сейчас же – это неплохая игра, чтобы скоротать время, но не стоит ждать от неё слишком многого.
