Carsome achieved full-year profitability in 2024

Malaysian used-car platform Carsome announced its first full year of profitability in 2024, reporting an adjusted EBITDA of US$10.5 million.

The financial performance was supported by a 25% year-on-year increase in gross profit per unit.

This growth was attributed to higher margins on vehicle sales, increased revenue from platform services, and reductions in refurbishment and logistics costs.
