New Aussie Startup Uses AI to Cut Car Buying Costs — and Confusion

Carreb.com.au wants to put an end to the confusion — and the cost — of buying your next car.

With over 400 models, 60 brands and 7 fuel types on Australian roads, choosing a car has become more confusing than ever. Carreb’s founders think it shouldn’t be this hard — or this expensive.

“Most people don’t realise they can save hundreds a month just by switching cars,” says Brisbane founder Gioacchino Marmotta. “But the choices, the spin, and the new fuel types make it impossible to compare.”

Carreb’s answer is the CORE™ Rating — an AI-powered score that uses verified government data and machine learning to compare the true Cost of Ownership (COO) and CO₂ emissions for every new car.

Instead of showroom hype, Carreb shows buyers:
What will this car really cost me over 5 years?
How much CO₂ will it emit?
How much can I actually save each month?

Early testing found 9 in 10 drivers matched with a better car for their needs — with ownership cost differences of up to $250/month. Even drivers who’ve bought in recent years are using Carreb to check if they made the right choice—and to compare their car’s true cost and impact.

Carreb’s site also offers RideReveal™, a unique AI-powered quiz that reveals your car-buying personality. “It’s part psychology, part data science — but it really helps you see what matters most to you,” says co-founder Manuel Perez.

Starting at just $4.67/month, Carreb gives Australians simple, honest, side-by-side comparisons to cut through greenwashing and guesswork.

“Most Aussies don’t want a lecture about climate,” says Marmotta. “They just want a car that makes sense — for their family, their wallet, and the planet.”
