Used Car System Solutions

🚗 What USS is

  • USS (Used car System Solutions) is Japan’s #1 used-car auction network
  • It operates nationwide car auctions for dealers only
  • It is listed on the Japanese stock market (a large public company)
  • Core business: buying, selling, and auctioning used vehicles

🏆 Why USS is important

USS is basically the center of Japan’s used-car market system:

  • 📊 Largest auction share in Japan
  • 🚗 Thousands of cars sold every week
  • 🏢 About 19 auction sites across Japan
  • 👥 Around 50,000+ registered dealer members
  • 💻 Supports online + on-site + terminal bidding systems

👉 In simple terms:
If Japanese used-car auctions are a “market,” USS is the biggest marketplace inside it.


🔧 What USS actually does

USS is not just a website — it runs a full system:

1. Car Auctions

  • Weekly auctions at physical locations
  • Online bidding systems for dealers

2. Dealer network system

  • Only licensed dealers can join
  • Buyers and sellers connect through USS platforms

3. Car recycling & retail

  • Also deals with:
    • Used car sales networks
    • Recycling end-of-life vehicles


🔐 Can normal people use it?

No.

USS is strictly B2B (business-to-business):

To join, you need:

  • A registered company in Japan
  • Used-car dealer license
  • Full business documentation
  • Staff and operational setup

👉 So overseas buyers (like Bangladesh) cannot directly access it — they use export agents or dealers.
