The Pricing Configs tool is now live in Admin for dealership users. You can build, edit, and publish your pricing stack directly. Collections now show every place they appear across your site, so editing or removing one no longer means guessing at what might break. The Event Calendar element now lets dealers control which tabs appear and in what order.

Pricing Configs is now available in Admin

The Pricing Configs tool is now available directly in Admin for dealership users. You can build, edit, and publish the pricing stack that controls how inventory prices appear to shoppers, for any structure you run: a simple price with MSRP, a transparent stack that shows shoppers exactly how the final price is calculated, or a multi-tier conditional layout.

What this includes:

• Build a line-item stack with any combination of MSRP, your price, conditional incentives, fees, and disclaimers
• Configure your stack separately for SRP cards, vehicle detail pages, and the price drawer
• Set a canonical price so what shoppers see on your site matches what feeds to third-party listing sites
• Support transparent pricing that breaks down every discount and incentive leading to the final price
• Save a draft and preview before making changes live
• Publish and update your config directly from Admin

Many dealers are already set up and can open the editor now under Admin > Inventory > Pricing Configs. If you do not see it yet, reach out to your Motive rep or Motive Support to request access.

Collections now show where they appear

The Collections list in Admin now includes a Placements column that shows exactly where each collection is being used across your site. Collections not referenced anywhere display "Not used anywhere." For those that are in use, you'll see a count you can hover to reveal the exact spots: page embeds, navigation links, redirects, quick tags, badges, overlays, and fees and incentives. This makes it much safer to edit or remove a collection, since you can check the full impact before making any changes. Find it under Admin > Inventory > Collections.

Event calendar tabs are now customizable

The Event Calendar element now lets dealers control which tabs appear and in what order. You can toggle any tab off or drag them into your preferred order. For example, you could lead with Upcoming and hide Past events entirely. Find the controls under Website > Pages by opening any page with an Event Calendar element.

Improvements

• For stores using the built-in ComplyAuto or KPA consent banners, Google Analytics, ads, and personalization tracking now default to denied the instant the page starts loading, before any tracking can fire. This applies automatically with nothing to configure. Dealers managing consent through a third-party banner can opt in under Admin > Dealership > Integrations > Compliance > GA4 Privacy Settings.
• Vehicle titles on search result cards are now fully clickable across the entire title area, not just the text itself. Previously, clicking in the empty space beside the title did nothing.
• The payment calculator on vehicle detail pages now labels the loan-term selector with text and a calendar icon, so shoppers know what the number of months refers to. The label follows your existing calculator copy and can be edited like any other payment calculator text.

Fixes

• SEO Suggestions on blog posts now read the full post body before recommending title changes, so suggestions better reflect what the post is actually about. This improves accuracy for posts with specific model year references and community or lifestyle content.
• The trade-in tool no longer freezes when vehicle data is slow to load. Previously, a slow or unresponsive data request could stall the page indefinitely for shoppers mid-trade.

Blog posts now meet Google's full requirements for Article rich results, and syncing a Google Business Profile in Admin now automatically strengthens local search signals for the dealership. A set of performance improvements and fixes covers the search results page, Admin AI, and Suggestions.

Blog posts qualify for Google Article rich results

Dealer blog posts now include complete BlogPosting schema, meeting Google's full requirements for Article rich results. Posts with a featured image can appear with enhanced formatting in Google search results, giving dealer content more visual presence and click potential on the page.

Google Business Profile now strengthens local search automatically

When a dealer syncs their Google Business Profile in Admin, their site now uses that connection to reinforce local search signals automatically. Google gets a direct link between the dealer's website and their Business Profile, which strengthens how the dealership appears in local search results.

Improvements

• Suggestions are now removed automatically when the pages that generated them are deleted or unpublished.

Fixes

• All-day events now remain visible on the events calendar through the end of the day.
• Subtext on centered Admin headers stays centered when it wraps to a new line.
• FTC compliance suggestions no longer flag content inside iFrames or misclassify dealer editorial copy as unqualified offers.

Pages with heavy custom content load faster, with images loading as shoppers scroll and a size limit on video uploads that keeps pages from getting weighed down. Popup modals can now target individual collection pages, so you can run a collection-specific offer without showing it across your whole site.

Core Web Vitals improvements

Two changes reduce load time on pages with heavy custom content. Images inside custom HTML blocks now load as shoppers scroll rather than all at once, so they no longer slow down the initial page render. Video uploads in Admin now enforce a file size limit so oversized video files cannot be uploaded and weigh down your pages.

Popups can now target individual pages

Lead wall popups can now target individual collection pages, not just all inventory pages. If you only want to show an offer and associated form on a specific collection of inventory, you can now set it to do so. To set it up, go to Engagement > Popups > Add a new popup or edit an existing one and select the pages it should apply to.

Improvements:

• Confirm Availability forms are now fully compatible with the accessibility Stop Animation setting

Motive’s AI Chat now fires ASC events in GA4, so dealers can see chat engagement and leads alongside their other tracked conversions for the first time. Dealer groups can organize their location filter by state, country, or both.

ASC Events for Chat

Motive’s AI Chat now fires ASC events at each stage of a conversation, so dealers and their analytics partners can track chat performance the same way they track form submissions. When a shopper opens chat, sends a message, or submits contact information, the corresponding event fires in GA4 automatically. When the lead reaches the CRM, a conversion event fires separately. Dealers can finally measure how AI Chat contributes to leads, and OEMs auditing a dealer's GA4 will see proper ASC compliance for chat for the first time.

What this includes:

• asc_comm_engagement fires at three stages: when a shopper opens the chat (start), sends a message (engage), and submits contact information (send)
• asc_comm_submission fires when a chat-initiated lead is submitted
• All events include standard ASC parameters:
  • event_owner
  • comm_type
  • comm_status
  • page_type
  • department

Dealer groups can now organize their location filter by state and/or country

Dealer groups can now choose how their location filter groups stores on inventory results: by state, by country, both as a nested list, or a flat list. For large groups with rooftops across multiple states or regions, this gives shoppers a cleaner way to find nearby stores without scrolling through a long undifferentiated list.

Improvements

• item_location is now included on all asc_form_submission events, so multi-rooftop dealers and their analytics partners can attribute leads to the correct store. Applies to Check Availability, Test Drive, Trade, Finance, and other form types.
• Structured data on vehicle pages now uses the label "Vehicle" instead of "Car," so search engines and AI tools correctly categorize trucks, and vans as well as cars.
• Merge tags can now be used in accordion sections. Dealer name, phone number, and other dynamic fields now populate in FAQ and expandable content on the live site.

Fixes

• The site-wide banner now holds formatting choices on the live site. Previously, centering and other style settings would revert to defaults.
• The payment calculator no longer shows a "Get Trade Value" button for dealers who do not use Motive's trade tool.

Dealers can now set the heading level on any hero or banner directly in the page editor, giving SEO partners control over page structure without custom HTML. Vehicle detail pages now include car details in the page itself, so AI search tools get accurate information on the first request.

Page heading levels are now selectable in the editor

Dealers can now set the heading level (H1, H2, or H3) on any hero or banner directly in the page editor. Search engines and AI tools rely on a page's heading structure to understand it, and the best practice is one clear main heading per page. Until now a hero's title was always the top-level heading with no way to change it, and the only workaround was custom HTML that broke the hero's built-in inventory search. Heroes stay at their current heading level by default, so nothing changes automatically. To adjust it, open a hero in the page editor and select the heading level in its settings. The inventory results page also now has a single, structured main heading with text that is editable per dealer.

Vehicle detail pages now give AI assistants the full picture

Vehicle data is now built into the page from the start, so when a shopper asks ChatGPT, Claude, or another AI assistant about a specific vehicle on your site, those tools see the full details on the first request. This is automatic with nothing to turn on, and it works alongside the structured data improvements also in this release.

Improvements

• Dealership identity details now appear automatically on Contact, Directions, Service, Parts, Finance, and About pages. Individual vehicle listings now link each car to the selling dealership's Google Business Profile, and dealer-group rooftops each carry their own identity instead of the parent group's.
• The AI Quick Tag generator now writes shopper-friendly names and suggests a matching icon based on the collection you've linked. Find it under Complications > Quick Tags when adding or editing a tag.
• The page editor now has a floating live preview that pops out into a separate window and refreshes each time you publish, so you can edit and see your changes side by side without switching tabs.
• The locations map on dealer-group sites now holds the shopper's position when they return from a store detail page, and a link pointing to a specific store opens the map already zoomed in on that location.
• Screen-reader labels were added to the mobile navigation buttons (menu, call, directions) so assistive technology can describe them correctly.

Fixes

• The Suggestions Scan Now button no longer fails when a dealer site contains a malformed link.
• Pages with URLs that start with /service/ now route correctly. Previously, any sub-page under /service/ (such as /service/oil-change) routed to the main /service page instead.
