About Auto123.com

Auto123.com is the most-visited automotive portal in Canada, generating over one million unique monthly visitors. Bilingual and comprehensive, it was created for you, the informed driver and car enthusiast, by a team of dynamic people equally passionate about new technologies, and in constant touch with the latest Web and automotive trends.

Auto123.com is your number-one source of information in Canada for everything automotive. Each day more than twenty specialized journalists and columnists offer you news, articles and independent road tests on current and upcoming vehicle models. A team of multimedia professionals puts at your disposal original photos and videos, and produces exclusive reports on automotive events in Quebec and across Canada. The world of automotive racing is also covered in-depth, from F1 to motocross to go-karting. Since 2007, we have also been fortunate enough to have Mr. Bertrand Godin serve as spokesman for Auto123.com!

A true pan-Canadian automotive network, Auto123.com is present just about everywhere on the Web through other platforms such as Flickr and Twitter Racing. Auto123.com also offers its members highly-targeted advertising solutions in effective and efficient formats, focusing on a non-intrusive approach free of aggressive and unwelcome windows.

Today Evolio and Auto123.com employ over 100 professionals in different domains: sales and marketing, advertising, programming and Web application development, graphic design, HTML integration, copy-writing, editing and translation, etc. We are a young and dynamic company in full expansion, where team spirit is an essential priority among all the employees.

In January 1996, a young Quebec entrepreneur, passionate about automobiles, a technophile, and son of a car salesman, founded Services Internet Autolinq Inc., the very first company to bring automotive dealers onto the Internet. With the help of IT-savvy friends, he created, with and for participants in the automotive industry, the first innovative tools and software which today constitute the basis of Auto123.com and Evolio’s integrated marketing strategy.

• Autolinq is founded in 1996. The new company creates the first software tools which will revolutionize the online automotive shopping experience in Canada: Perfect Car (vehicle builder / configurator), vehicle comparison tool, online parts catalogue for Canada and complete Web transaction with credit card.
• At the beginning of 1999, the rapidly expanding Autolinq creates the first bilingual Internet portal for cars in Canada: Auto123.com.
• Between 2004 and 2005, Evolio is created to manage interactive marketing for all the automotive dealers who are clients of Auto123.com.
• Now the largest portal of its kind in Canada, the Auto123.com site adds a section devoted to automotive racing in 2002, followed by one dedicated to the environment in 2004, and adds a videos section in 2006.
• In 2008, Auto123.com brings online the all-new version of its website. A whole team of experts will have worked diligently for over a year and a half to conceive and build this site, which is among the most complete and innovative automotive shopping tools in the world.

A pioneer a decade ago of Internet marketing for automotive dealerships, Evolio has today become the benchmark in the Canadian industry for dealerships seeking to increase their revenues via the Web. Evolio is proud to serve over 2,000 clients, and to be the largest online automotive marketing company in Canada for dealers, manufacturers, advertising agencies and the media. The company is present across the country, and offers fully bilingual services, software and sites.

Evolio also represents other automotive portals with large Web presences, such as MON VOLANT on the cyberpresse.ca site, and Driving.ca.
