Carvana, an e-commerce platform for buying and selling used cars, launched its newest car vending machine, located in Richmond, its first in Virginia, according to a press release. The red brick and glass structure stands 12 stories tall with a 43-vehicle capacity.

Customers can shop an inventory of more than 55,000 used cars for sale, secure auto financing or use the car loan calculator, purchase, trade in and schedule as-soon-as-next-day vehicle delivery in as little as five minutes.

Customers can also sell their current vehicle to Carvana and receive a real offer just as quickly, without even purchasing a vehicle.

Carvana customers can save time and money by skipping the dealership and shopping online, and select a day and time convenient for them to pick up their vehicle at the car vending machine.

Upon arrival, they will be greeted by a customer advocate and receive a commemorative, oversized Carvana coin to activate the automated vending process. Carvana customers get a front-row seat to watch their vehicle descending through the brightly lit structure from the heart of the all-glass tower.

The newest vending machine is the first of its kind in Virginia, and the 30th in the U.S. Additional machines are located in Utah, Nevada, Kentucky, Tennessee, Texas, Florida, Maryland, Arizona, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, California, Michigan and Georgia.

The Richmond car vending machine is located at 2201 Westwood Ave. Location hours are Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. ET.
