Unidas Used Cars Portal

Unidas’ national portal – Used Cars

Project Overview:

  • Unidas Seminovos’ national portal is a prominent platform for purchasing used cars.
  • The project, undertaken at Stripe Digital, involved the complete design of the user experience from inception to execution. The primary objective was to optimize lead acquisition and management while ensuring a cohesive and intuitive design for users. The portal can be viewed live at seminovos.unidas.com.br.

Assumptions:

  • The design approach followed a “Mobile First” strategy, prioritizing mobile user experience and responsiveness as the foundation for the overall design.

Goals:

  • Focus on lead acquisition and treatment: The design aimed to streamline the process of capturing and managing leads effectively.
  • Create a consistent design: Consistency in design elements and user interface across the platform was a key goal.
  • Segmentation by regional market particularities: The design accounted for regional variations and preferences to tailor the user experience accordingly.

Process:

  • Heat Maps Analysis: Utilizing the Hotjar tool, an analysis was conducted on the existing portal over a span of 3 weeks, involving over 1000 users and 20241 pageviews. Key user actions observed included navigation patterns, search interactions, engagement with internal offers, and contact interactions.
  • Benchmarking: Benchmarking involved analyzing national and international competitors, as well as innovative industry leaders. This comparative analysis helped identify best practices and areas for improvement.
  • Sitemap: A basic sitemap was developed, outlining the navigation flows and structure of the portal to ensure intuitive user journeys.
  • Wireframes: Wireframes were created to outline the layout and functionality of key pages, providing a blueprint for the user interface design.
  • UI Design: Modular Structure: The UI design adopted a modular structure with adaptable component patterns. This approach facilitated scalability and consistency across the platform while accommodating regional variations.

Key Findings:

  • Heat map analysis revealed insights into user behavior, guiding the design process to prioritize key functionalities such as navigation, search, and contact interactions.
  • Benchmarking highlighted industry best practices and innovative features that informed the design direction for the portal.

Implementation and Results:

  • The modular structure and cohesive UI design were successfully implemented, resulting in a seamless user experience that aligned with the project goals.
  • Post-implementation analysis indicated improvements in lead acquisition and user engagement, validating the effectiveness of the design approach.

Key Learnings:

  • Emphasizing a “Mobile First” approach proved beneficial in catering to the growing mobile user base.
  • Consistency in design elements and regional segmentation are essential for catering to diverse user preferences and optimizing user engagement
