Smith Chevrolet Cadillac has opened its new 35,000-square-foot dealership at 6500 Autopark Drive near the company’s Nissan dealership.

The building is the newest auto dealership in Arkansas and is easily accessible from Interstate 540, Zero Street, and U.S. 71.

The new facility includes the newest technology in sales and service. With Smith’s new Hawkeye Elite quick alignment check system, an ASE Certified mechanic can check your car alignment, battery and run a complete on-board diagnostics report on the health of your car in less than 15 minutes.

There are typically more than 900 new and pre-owned vehicles on the Smith Chevrolet Cadillac and the adjacent Smith Nissan dealership.

“We've tried making the entire process of buying a new car or truck as easy and seamless as possible,” Smith Chevrolet Cadillac Executive Manager of Operations Bryan Penniman said in a statement. “Unlike the Towson Avenue location, everything is under one roof, from sales to service, our customers can stay in the loop when it comes to their vehicle. … We want to be upfront and honest with our customers so when they drive off our lot they feel good about doing business with us, new or pre-owned.”

Penniman said for all pre-owned vehicles, Smith Chevrolet Cadillac uses a “market based pricing,” sales model that compares all like vehicles within 250 miles and advises on pricing points.

The showroom is open Monday-Friday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Service hours are Monday -Friday 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Saturday 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
