| FIAT 500 America - TwitBid |
The auction was for a special-edition Fiat 500 called the Fiat 500 America. Fiat has just claimed the title as the first automaker to sell a new car online using Twitter as an auction platform.
The promotion was called TwitBid, and it was a public auction held by Fiat on Twitter. From March 1 to March 15, people could place a bid by simply tweeting a
"twit-offer" which includes how much your bid for the car is. In the 15
days, over 700 "twit-bids" came in from over 293 users in 11 countries
with a total of 787 tweets being registered during the promotion.
The winning "twit-bid" belonged to a Adelheid D. Keiper, a German
Twitter user with the nickname @KanzleiKieper. The winning bid was for
15.165 euros, and won the "number one car" of the limited-edition Fiat
500 America.
