The vending machine is an automated machine that provides various items to consumers after a coin, cash, credit card, or specially designed card is inserted into the machine. Similarly, the car vending machine is a multi-storied building filled with different cars. It is a fully automated, coin-operated vending machine that dispenses the car once it has been purchased. It enhances the car buying process which attracts the customers and provides them unparalleled user experience created through the combination of technology, robotics, and a custom-made glass environment. To purchase a vehicle, the customer first has to purchases the car through online or offline mode, make the payment, and shave to sign all the documents. Then to pick up a purchased vehicle, the customer enters their name and drops a special coin/token into the car vending machine's control panel, which then lights up and initiates the vending process. The vending machine then retrieves the car from the building Tower and places it on a track, which then moves the car through the machine until it reaches and enters the designated delivery bay. The bay then opens, and the customer is invited in, to take possession of their new vehicle.
