ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--At the National Automotive Dealers Association 2013 Convention and Expo (NADA 2013), Dealertrack (Nasdaq: TRAK) will preview the company’s latest offerings designed to help dealers mobilize their businesses.

“Mobile technology has quickly become an integral part of a dealer’s workflow, and will be an even stronger, business-critical tool for dealerships in the future”

The new eMenu for iPad app is expected to be available to dealers in the United States in the second quarter of this year.
