How Instamotion Leveraged AWS Scalability for Real-World Success
By migrating to AWS and rewriting the codebase, we helped Instamotion unlock performance, agility, and long-term scalability.
A New Way to Buy Cars
Instamotion is a digital automotive platform in Germany that simplifies how people buy used cars online. With a focus on user-friendly navigation, transparent pricing, and seamless delivery, the platform aims to eliminate the complexity of traditional car sales. Instamotion offers a streamlined experience — from technical checks to final delivery — backed by strong customer support and a modern, intuitive interface.
Slowed Down by Old Tech
Instamotion’s existing platform, built on PHP and Vue.js and hosted on Heroku, struggled with poor code quality, frequent bugs, and a rigid infrastructure that slowed delivery and made scaling difficult. Feature releases were delayed, system stability was compromised, and developers faced growing inefficiencies. To meet increasing user expectations and improve delivery speed, Instamotion turned to Opinov8 to rewrite the codebase and migrate the platform to AWS — unlocking flexibility, control, and long-term scalability.
