To mark the occasion, Droom also launched a highly innovative, convenient and uniplug-and-play play IoT enabled ECO Smart device that connects with a car’s OBD II port, integrates with the car’s sensors, hardware modules, data transmitters, control units and allows one to track their performance, health, and damage factors. 

ECO is the most scientific, comprehensive as well as unbiased inspection and verification service in the country providing a thorough 121+ point auto inspection for used vehicles. Out of the 50,000 inspection queries, 45% were generated from Delhi-NCR, while the rest came from more than 100 cities across India. In terms of category breakup, 56% and 44% inspections were done for four wheelers and two wheelers respectively. With the launch of the ECO Smart Device, this demand is expected to grow much higher, and at a more robust pace.  The device scans through more than 1000 sensors (checkpoints) to monitor the engine health of any vehicle. At present, Droom is successfully running a pilot of this device in Delhi-NCR and has plans to soon expand its operations across the country.
