What Quattroruote Professional does

Quattroruote Professional is the B2B automotive data and software business unit of Italian publishing group Editoriale Domus SpA, headquartered in Rozzano (Milan). The company provides web and digital solutions to automotive professionals across car dealerships, repair shops and body shops, insurance companies, fleet operators, motorcycle businesses, and OEMs. Its core asset is the Quattroruote Database, built around the proprietary Infocar Code vehicle identification system and refined over 30+ years, which underpins used car valuations, technical specifications, spare parts catalogs, and repair time data for the Italian market.

The product platform is modular. Infocar Web serves as an all-in-one dealer management system for vehicle configuration, used car valuation, stock and lead management, and marketplace publishing, while Infocar Repair delivers workshop management including estimates, spare parts, digital agenda, e-invoicing, and the Service Book electronic service history. Around these core products sit add-on modules such as LeadCars CRM, Advanced Electronic Signature, Fatturazione Elettronica, VIN/plate lookup, Ricambi & Tempari spare parts database, and the Power checK Control (PKC) battery health certification for electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles, which is independently certified by TÜV SÜD against the CARA standard. The company also offers Business Intelligence services, training programs, and the Dueruote Professional line for the motorcycle vertical.

Quattroruote Professional monetizes primarily through recurring subscriptions and database access fees, with public pricing on commodity modules (e.g., €95/year base e-invoicing) and quote-based enterprise pricing for core software. Distribution is sales-led, with a direct sales team of industry-specialized account managers supplemented by a customer self-service portal. The customer base exceeds 10,000 companies, including insurance carriers, dealer groups, repair networks, and major industry partners such as Goodyear, with active international expansion underway led by an International Director targeting France and additional European markets. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO/IEC 27001, and TISAX certifications and is part of the diversified Editoriale Domus publishing group.

Direct peers

• HaynesPro: HaynesPro (Owned by Haynes) provides OEM-grade repair and maintenance data for European workshops; close functional parallel to Infocar Repair's technical and service-time content.
• Autodata: Autodata provides technical repair information (wiring, fault codes, service intervals) to workshops globally; currently integrated into QP's stack but a direct alternative to Infocar Repair's technical content.
• CAP HPI: CAP HPI supplies vehicle valuation, technical data and market intelligence to UK and European automotive markets including insurers; closest like-for-like competitor to QP's Italian quotations and technical database.
• Autovista Group (Eurotax): Autovista/Eurotax produces pan-European residual-value and used-car valuation datasets for OEMs, dealers and insurers - functionally identical to QP's Quotazioni Quattroruote service and Infocar Code methodology.
• TecAlliance (TecDoc): TecAlliance operates the TecDoc spare parts catalog integrated into QP's Ricambi & Tempari; it is both a partner and competitor setting global OE-equivalent parts data standards for the aftermarket.

Broad incumbents

• CDK Global (Dealertrack): CDK Global dominates dealer management systems (DMS) with which QP Infocar Web integrates; represents the dominant adjacent workflow platform QP must interoperate with or against.
• Solera (Audatex): Solera's Audatex is the global leader in automotive insurance claims estimating, repair data and valuations, directly competing with QP's Ricambi & Tempari, Winnc and Insurance Pro solutions across European insurers.
• Mitchell International: Mitchell (under Enlyte) supplies estimating, repair and pharmacy data to North American P&C insurers; comparable to QP's insurer-focused claim and repair-time workflows.

Emerging players

• carVertical: carVertical aggregates vehicle history (accidents, mileage, ownership) from multiple registries; currently integrated into QP as a third-party data source but increasingly a competing data-platform narrative.

Others

• Dueruote Professional (Sibling Brand): QP's sister motorcycle-industry unit under Editoriale Domus built from Soft Way S.r.l. (ARCO, CATPOWER); adjacent peer showing the same vertical-data SaaS playbook applied to two-wheelers.
