Edmunds.com Inc. was founded in 1966 for the purpose of publishing new and used automotive pricing guides to assist automobile buyers. In 1994, before the World Wide Web became mainstream, our new car pricing data was first posted on the Internet through a gopher site that was known as "The Electronic Newsstand." This was the first time consumer automotive information had been provided through the Internet.
In 1995, Edmunds.com launched as the first automotive information Web site. Edmunds.com, along with its highly regarded mobile site, Android App and five-star iPhone app, make car pricing, car reviews and other research tools available for car shoppers at dealerships and on the go.
