Ltd. (a Turks and Caicos Islands, British West Indies company) and Orange Peel LLC (a Virginia LLC), which owns 100% of Orange Peel Reinsurance, Ltd. (a Turks and Caicos Islands, British West Indies company). Basis of Presentation On January 21, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the Company consummated the merger pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 21, 2020, by and among the Company, Merger Sub and Former CarLotz, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 16, 2020, by and among the Company, Merger Sub and Former CarLotz (See Note 3 “Merger” for further discussion). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, a business combination between the Company and Former CarLotz was effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Former CarLotz with Former CarLotz continuing as the surviving company. Notwithstanding the legal form of the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Merger is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). Under this method of accounting, CarLotz is treated as the acquired company and Former CarLotz is treated as the acquiror for financial statement reporting and accounting purposes. As a result of Former CarLotz being the accounting acquirer, the financial reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) by the Company subsequent to the Merger are prepared “as if” Former CarLotz is the predecessor and legal successor to the Company. The historical operations of Former CarLotz are deemed to be those of the Company. Thus, the financial statements included in this report reflect (i) the historical operating results of Former CarLotz prior to the Merger, (ii) the combined results of the Company and Former CarLotz following the Merger on January 21, 2021, (iii) the assets and liabilities of Former CarLotz at their historical cost and (iv) the Company’s equity structure for all periods presented. The recapitalization of the number of shares of common stock attributable to the purchase of Former CarLotz in connection with the Merger is reflected retroactively to the earliest period presented and will be utilized for calculating earnings per share in all prior periods presented. No step-up basis of intangible assets or goodwill was recorded in the Merger transaction consistent with the treatment of the transaction as a reverse recapitalization of Former CarLotz. In connection with the Merger, Acamar Partners Acquisition Corp. changed its name to CarLotz, Inc. The Company’s common stock is now listed on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “LOTZ” and warrants to purchase the common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share are listed on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “LOTZW”. Prior to the Merger, the Company neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenue. Until the Merger, based on the Company’s business activities, it was a “shell company” as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, except for those related to recent accounting pronouncements adopted in the current fiscal year. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, which consist of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022 and its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the current fiscal year or any other future periods. Restructuring On June 21, 2022, we announced the closure of retail operations at 11 hub locations and determined not to commence retail operations at 3 unopened hub locations with executed lease agreements. The costs associated with the hub closures are classified as restructuring expenses. See Note 21 — Restructuring Charges, Asset Impairment, and Assets Held For Sale for further detail. Shift Merger On August 9, 2022, the Company entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Shift Merger Agreement”) with Shift Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Shift”), and Shift Remarketing Operations, Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct wholly owned subsidiary of Shift (“Shift Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, Shift Merger Sub will be merged with and into CarLotz, with CarLotz continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Shift (the “Shift Merger”). The Shift Merger is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2022, subject to Shift and Company stockholder approval and other customary and regulatory approvals. Certain transaction expenses (“Shift Merger expenses”) such as financial advisory, legal, accounting costs and associated fees and expenses that will be paid at the close of the Shift Merger are expensed as incurred and included in Accrued Expenses (see Note 12 — Accrued Expenses for further detail).

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Summary of Significant Accounting PoliciesFor a detailed discussion about the Company’s significant accounting policies and for further information on accounting updates adopted in the prior year, see Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, there were no significant revisions to the Company’s significant accounting policies, other than those indicated herein related to the adoption of Leases Topic 842. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Following the closing of the Merger, Former CarLotz equity holders at the effective time of the Merger will have the contingent right to receive, in the aggregate, up to 7,500,000 shares of common stock if, from the closing of the Merger until the fifth anniversary thereof, the reported closing trading price of the common stock exceeds certain thresholds. Estimating the change in fair value of the earnout liability for the earnout shares that could be earned by Former CarLotz equity holders at the effective time of the Merger requires determining both the fair value valuation model to use and inputs to the valuation model. The fair value of the earnout shares was estimated by utilizing a Monte-Carlo simulation model, which is a commonly used valuation model for this type of transaction. Inputs that have a significant effect on the earnout shares valuation include the expected volatility, starting stock price, expected term, risk-free interest rate and the earnout hurdles. See Note 6 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Warrants that were issued by Acamar Partners (Merger warrants) and continue to exist following the closing of the Merger are accounted for as freestanding financial instruments. These warrants are classified as liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and are recorded at their estimated fair value. The estimated fair value of the warrants is determined by using the market value in an active trading market. See Note 6 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak and spread of the COVID-19 virus a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic and global macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions continue to disrupt supply chains and impact production and sales across a wide range of industries. The full economic impact of the pandemic and global conditions has not been determined, including the impact on the Company’s suppliers, customers and credit markets. Due to the evolving and uncertain nature of COVID-19 and global macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions, it is reasonably possible that it could materially impact the Company’s estimates, particularly those noted above that require consideration of forecasted financial information, in the near to medium term. The ultimate impact will depend on numerous evolving factors that the Company may not be able to accurately predict, including the duration and extent of the pandemic, the impact of federal, state, local and foreign governmental actions, consumer behavior in response to the pandemic and other economic and operational conditions the Company may face. Restricted Cash As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, restricted cash included approximately $4,049 and $4,336, respectively. The restricted cash is legally and contractually restricted as collateral for lines of credit, including floorplan, and for the payment of claims on the reinsurance companies. Advertising Costs The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Advertising expenses were approximately $6,237 and $13,674 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Concentration of Credit Risk Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivables are limited due to the large diversity and number of customers comprising the Company’s retail customer base. Assets and Liabilities Held For Sale As a result of the announced hub closures on June 21, 2022, the ROU and finance lease assets and liabilities associated with hub locations where the Company has or intends to assign the lease to a third-party or terminate the lease agreement (as opposed to subleasing to a third-party) are classified as held for sale. The fixed assets associated with all closed hub locations, to the extent they are not impaired, are also classified as held for sale. Revenues The Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control of goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Control passes to the retail and wholesale vehicle sales customer when the title is delivered to the customer, who then assumes control of the vehicle. Retail Vehicle Sales We sell used vehicles to our retail customers through our hubs in various cities. The transaction price for used vehicles is a fixed amount as set forth in the customer contract. Customers frequently trade-in their existing vehicle to apply toward the transaction price of a used vehicle. Trade-in vehicles represent noncash consideration which we measure at estimated fair value of the vehicle received on trade. We satisfy our performance obligation and recognize revenue for used vehicle sales at a point in time when the title to the vehicle passes to the customer, at which point the customer controls the vehicle. We provide a 12-month/12,000-mile limited warranty on most retail vehicle sales. The limited warranty is not treated as a separate performance obligation given the nature of the limited warranty is to provide assurance as to the quality of the vehicle being sold. The revenue recognized by CarLotz includes the agreed upon transaction price, including any service fees. Revenue excludes any sales taxes, title and registration fees, and other government fees that are collected from customers. We receive payment for used vehicle sales directly from the customer at the time of sale or from third-party financial institutions within a short period of time following the sale if the customer obtains financing. Our exchange policy allows customers to initiate an exchange during the first seven days or 400 miles after delivery, whichever comes first. If the vehicle is returned, the sale and associated revenue recognition is reversed, and the vehicle is treated as a purchase of inventory. See the remainder of the Company’s revenue accounting policy related to wholesale, finance and insurance, and other revenue in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed on March 15, 2022. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard affected all entities that lease assets and requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases (except for short-term leases that have a duration of less than one year) as of the date on which the lessor makes the underlying asset available to the lessee. For lessors, accounting for leases is substantially the same as in prior periods. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, to clarify how to apply certain aspects of the new leases standard. ASU 2016-02, as subsequently amended for various technical issues, was effective for emerging growth companies following private company adoption dates in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, and early adoption was permitted. We adopted ASC 842 for the year beginning January 1, 2022 using the modified retrospective transition approach applied at the beginning of the period of adoption, which did not result in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. Comparative periods presented in the financial statements continue to be presented in accordance with ASC 840. As permitted under the standard, we have elected the package of practical expedients for the transition to ASC 842, under which we did not reassess our prior conclusions regarding lease identification, lease classification, or initial direct costs for contracts existing as of the transition date. We have also elected to apply the following practical expedients for contracts existing as of the transition date and all new contracts after our adoption of ASC 842: 1) recognizing lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term for leases with a term of 12 months or less and not recognizing them on the balance sheet and 2) accounting for lease and non-lease components for all asset classes as a combined single unit of account. We have not elected the practical expedient related to all land easements nor the hindsight practical expedient. The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of $50.5 million of operating lease assets, which included an adjustment for deferred rent, and $52.6 million of operating lease liabilities on our opening consolidated balance sheet. We have implemented new business processes, accounting policies, systems and internal controls as part of adopting the new standard. See Note 14 for additional information on leases. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. The new model uses a forward-looking expected loss method, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. ASU 2016-13, as subsequently amended for various technical issues, is effective for emerging growth companies following private company adoption dates for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard to its financial statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes , which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for emerging growth companies following private company adoption dates in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.

Reverse Recapitalization [Abstract]
Merger	Merger On the Closing Date, the Company consummated the merger pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 21, 2020, by and among the Company, Merger Sub and Former CarLotz, as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated December 16, 2020, by and among the Company, Merger Sub and Former CarLotz. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, a business combination between the Company and Former CarLotz was effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Former CarLotz with Former CarLotz surviving as the surviving company. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Acamar Partners was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes (See Note 1 — Description of the Business). Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of Former CarLotz issuing stock for the net assets of Acamar Partners, accompanied by a recapitalization. Prior to the Merger, Former CarLotz and Acamar Partners filed separate standalone federal, state and local income tax returns. As a result of the Merger, structured as a reverse acquisition for tax purposes, Acamar Partners was renamed CarLotz, Inc. and became the parent of the consolidated filing group, with Former CarLotz as a subsidiary. Recapitalization Cash - Acamar Partners’ trust and cash $ 309,999 Cash - PIPE 125,000 Less: consideration delivered to existing stockholders of Former CarLotz (62,693) Less: consideration to pay accrued dividends (4,853) Less: transaction costs and advisory fees paid (47,579) Less: payments on cash considerations associated with stock options (2,465) Net contributions from Merger and PIPE financing 317,409 Liabilities relieved: preferred stock obligation 2,832 Liabilities relieved: KAR/AFC note payable 3,625 Liabilities relieved: historic warrant liability 144 Less: earnout shares liability (74,285) Less: Merger warrants liability (39,024) Merger warrants The following is an analysis of the warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s stock deemed acquired as part of the Merger and outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. There has been no change in outstanding stock warrants since the Merger. September 30, 2022 Stock warrants outstanding - Public 10,185,774 Stock warrants outstanding - Private 6,074,310 Stock warrants cancelled — Stock warrants exercised — Stock warrants outstanding 16,260,084 Earnout Shares Former CarLotz equity holders at the closing of the Merger are entitled to receive up to an additional 6,945,732 earnout shares. The earnout shares will be issued to the beneficiaries if certain targets are met in the post-acquisition period. The earnouts for the earnout shares are subject to an earnout period, which is defined as the date 60 months following the consummation of the Merger. The Merger closed on January 21, 2021, and the earnout period expires January 21, 2026. The earnout shares will be issued if any of the following conditions are achieved following January 21, 2021: i. If at any time during the 60 months following the Closing Date (the first business day following the end of such period, the “Forfeiture Date”), the closing trading price of the common stock is greater than $12.50 over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period (the “First Threshold”), the Company will issue 50% of the earnout shares. ii. If at any time prior to the Forfeiture Date, the closing trading price of the common stock is greater than $15.00 over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period (the “Second Threshold”), the Company will issue 50% of the earnout shares. iii. If either the First Threshold or the Second Threshold is not met on or before the Forfeiture Date, any unissued earnout shares are forfeited. All unissued earnout shares will be issued if there is a change of control of the Company that will result in the holders of the common stock receiving a per share price equal to or in excess of $10.00 (as equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, special cash dividends, reorganizations, combinations, recapitalizations and similar transactions affecting the common stock) prior to the Forfeiture Date. Before the contingency is met, the earnout shares will be classified as a liability under the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815, so changes in the fair value of the earnout shares in future periods will be recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The estimated fair value of the liability is determined by using a Monte-Carlo simulation model.

In the following tables, revenue is disaggregated by major lines of goods and services and timing of transfer of goods and services. The Company has determined that these categories depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The tables below include disaggregated revenue under ASC 606 ( Revenue from Contracts with Customers ): Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Vehicle Sales Fleet Management Total Vehicle Sales Fleet Management Total Retail vehicle sales $ 32,545 $ — $ 32,545 $ 142,344 $ — $ 142,344 Wholesale vehicle sales 16,357 — 16,357 38,880 — 38,880 Finance and insurance, net $ 1,691 $ — $ 1,691 8,591 — 8,591 Lease income, net — 245 245 — 528 528 Total Revenues $ 50,593 $ 245 $ 50,838 $ 189,815 $ 528 $ 190,343 Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Vehicle Sales Fleet Management Total Vehicle Sales Fleet Management Total Retail vehicle sales $ 56,284 $ — $ 56,284 $ 150,897 $ — $ 150,897 Wholesale vehicle sales 8,989 — 8,989 18,217 — 18,217 Finance and insurance, net $ 2,639 $ — $ 2,639 5,973 — 5,973 Lease income, net — 129 129 — 334 334 Total Revenues $ 67,912 $ 129 $ 68,041 $ 175,087 $ 334 $ 175,421 The following table summarizes revenues and cost of sales for retail and wholesale vehicle sales for the periods ended: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Retail vehicles: Retail vehicle sales $ 32,545 $ 56,284 $ 142,344 $ 150,897 Retail vehicle cost of sales 32,141 56,584 144,058 147,142 Gross Profit – Retail Vehicles $ 404 $ (300) $ (1,714) $ 3,755 Wholesale vehicles: Wholesale vehicle sales $ 16,357 $ 8,989 $ 38,880 $ 18,217 Wholesale vehicle cost of sales 19,288 9,433 43,317 20,065 Gross Profit – Wholesale Vehicles $ (2,931) $ (444) $ (4,437) $ (1,848) Retail Vehicle Sales The Company sells used vehicles to retail customers through its retail hub locations. The transaction price for used vehicles is a fixed amount as set forth in the customer contract, and the revenue recognized by the Company is inclusive of the agreed upon transaction price and any service fees. Customers frequently trade-in their existing vehicle to apply toward the transaction price of a used vehicle. Trade-in vehicles represent noncash consideration, which the Company measures at estimated fair value of the vehicle received on the trade. The Company satisfies its performance obligation and recognizes revenue for used vehicle sales at a point in time when the title to the vehicle passes to the customer, at which point the customer controls the vehicle. The 12-month/12,000-mile limited warranty included in most retail vehicle sales is not treated as a separate performance obligation given the nature of the limited warranty is to provide assurance as to the quality of the vehicle being sold. The Company receives payment for used vehicle sales directly from the customer at the time of sale or from third-party financial institutions within a short period of time following the sale if the customer obtains financing. The Company’s exchange/return policy allows customers to initiate an exchange/return of a vehicle during the first seven days or 400 miles after delivery, whichever comes first. An exchange/return reserve is immaterial based on the Company’s historical activity. Wholesale Vehicle Sales Vehicles that do not meet the Company’s standards for retail vehicle sales, vehicles that did not sell through the retail channel within a reasonable period of time and vehicles that the Company determines offer greater financial benefit through the wholesale channel are sold through various wholesale methods. The Company satisfies its performance obligation and recognizes revenue for wholesale vehicle sales when the vehicle is sold at auction or directly to a wholesaler and title to the vehicle passes to the next owner. Additionally, the Company sold or will sell vehicles that were at the closed hub locations through the wholesale channel that may not have been sold through the wholesale channel if the hubs had remained open. Finance and Insurance, net The Company provides customers with options for financing, insurance and extended warranties. Certain warranties are serviced by a company owned by a major stockholder. All other services are provided by third-party vendors, and the Company has agreements with each of these vendors giving the Company the right to offer such services. When a customer selects a service from these third-party vendors, the Company earns a commission based on the actual price paid or financed. The Company concluded that it is an agent for these transactions because it does not control the products before they are transferred to the customer. Accordingly, the Company recognizes finance and insurance revenue at the point in time when the customer enters into the contract.

There were no transfers between the levels during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The following tables set forth a summary of changes in the estimated fair value of the Company’s Level 3 redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche obligation, historic warrants liability and earnout shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021: January 1, Issuances Settlements Change in fair value September 30, Earnout shares 7,679 — — (6,957) 722 Total $ 7,679 $ — $ — $ (6,957) $ 722 January 1, Issuances Settlements Change in fair value September 30, Redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche obligation $ 2,832 $ — $ (2,832) $ — $ — Historic warrants liability 144 — (144) — — Earnout shares — 74,284 — (56,621) 17,663 Total $ 2,976 $ 74,284 $ (2,976) $ (56,621) $ 17,663 The fair value of the earnout shares was estimated by using a model based on previous Monte-Carlo simulation models. The inputs into the Monte-Carlo pricing model included significant unobservable inputs. The table below summarizes the significant observable inputs used when valuing the earnout shares as of: September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 Expected volatility 120.00 % 80.00 % Starting stock price $0.30 $3.81 Expected term (in years) 3.3 years 4.30 years Risk-free interest rate 4.25 % 0.79 % Earnout hurdle $12.50-$15.00 $12.50-$15.00 Fair Value of Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The carrying amounts of restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because their respective maturities are less than three months.

Leases

Leases [Abstract]
Leases	Leases The Company leases its operating facilities from various third parties under non-cancelable operating and finance leases. The leases require various monthly rental payments ranging from approximately $3 to $70, with various ending dates through September 2036. The initial term for real property leases is typically 5 to 15 years. Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from 1 to 5 years or more. We include options to renew (or terminate) in our lease term, and as part of our right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities, when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. ROU assets and the related lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. The leases are triple net, whereby the Company is liable for taxes, insurance and repairs. These amounts are generally considered to be variable and are not included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability. Most of these leases have escalating rent payments, which are being expensed on a straight-line basis and are included in operating lease amounts on the balance sheet. The Company also leases vehicles from a third party under noncancelable operating leases and leases these same vehicles to end customers with similar lease terms, with the exception of the interest rate. The leases require various monthly rental payments from the Company ranging from $229 to $2,356 (actual) with various ending dates through March 2027. The initial term for vehicle leases is typically 36 to 72 months. Most leases do not include an option to renew. The lease payments are generally fixed throughout the term and any variable lease payments (non-recurring maintenance, taxes, registration) are not included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our collateralized incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. We have elected the practical expedient on not separating lease components from non-lease components. All leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The components of lease expense were as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Operating lease cost (1) $ 2,343 $ 7,080 Finance lease cost: Depreciation of lease assets 95 621 Interest on lease liabilities 283 856 Total finance lease cost 378 1,477 Total lease cost 2,721 8,557 (1) Includes short-term leases and variable lease costs, which are immaterial.

(2) Operating lease assets are recorded net of impairment of $420 and $1,020 in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, due to a change in the physical condition of a right-of-use asset.

Stock-Based Compensation Plan

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation Plan	Stock-Based Compensation Plan Stock Option Plans The Company has four stock incentive plans, the “2011 Stock Option Plan,” the “2017 Stock Option Plan,” the “2020 Incentive Award Plan,” and the “Inducement Plan” to promote the long-term growth and profitability of the Company. The plans do this by providing senior management and other employees with incentive to improve stockholder value and contribute to the growth and financial success of the Company by granting equity instruments to these stakeholders. Share-based compensation expense was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 of approximately $4,234 and $49,114, respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Black-Scholes pricing model requires the use of subjective inputs such as stock price volatility. Changes in the inputs can materially affect the fair value estimates and ultimately the amount of stock-based compensation expense that is recognized. 2011 Stock Option Plan A summary of activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 for the 2011 Stock Option Plan is as follows: Number of Weighted Average Exercise Price Balance (December 31, 2021) 1,260,328 $0.56 Granted — — Exercised (339,251) 0.37 Forfeited (281,574) 0.64 Expired (639,503) 0.64 Balance (September 30, 2022) — — Vested (as of September 30, 2022) — $— Number of Weighted Average Exercise Price Balance (December 31, 2020) 1,571,205 $0.59 Granted — — Exercised (56,059) 0.24 Forfeited — — Balance (September 30, 2021) 1,515,146 0.58 Vested (as of September 30, 2021) 1,515,146 $0.58 There are no options outstanding as of September 30, 2022 related to the 2011 Stock Option Plan. 2017 Stock Option Plan The terms of the 2017 Stock Option Plan provide for vesting upon certain market and performance conditions, including achieving certain triggering events, including specified levels of return on investment upon a sale of the Company. Because the 2017 Stock Option Plan has a market-based vesting condition, an open-form valuation model was used to value the options. All stock options related to the 2017 Stock Option Plan have an exercise price of $0.92 per share. All stock options related to the 2017 Stock Option Plan expire 10 years after the grant date, which ranges from March 2028 to August 2030. A summary of activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 for the 2017 Stock Option Plan is as follows: Number of Units Weighted Averaged Exercise Price Balance (December 31, 2021) 3,936,176 $ 0.92 Granted — — Exercised (6,371) $ 0.92 Forfeited (329,002) 0.92 Balance (September 30, 2022) 3,600,803 $ 0.92 Vested (as of September 30, 2022) 3,340,901 $ 0.92 Number of Units Weighted Averaged Exercise Price Balance (December 31, 2020) 3,961,658 $ 0.92 Granted — — Forfeited — — Balance (September 30, 2021) 3,961,658 $ 0.92 The 2017 options vest upon a change of control. Although the Merger did not meet the definition of a change of control, the Company modified the awards in connection with the Merger such that all vesting conditions were waived for 3,538,672 of the options. This modification impacted eight employees and resulted in $38,800 of share-based compensation on the modification date. The remaining options were also modified but will vest over a service period of four years and impacted 16 employees. At the time of modification, these options resulted in $186 of cash consideration and $4,500 of share based compensation that will be recognized over the service period of four years. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, $627 of share-based compensation was recognized.

As of September 30, 2022, there was approximately $367 of unrecognized compensation cost that vests over a service period of four years, approximately $686 of unrecognized compensation cost that vests over a service period of three years, and $632 of unrecognized compensation cost that vests over a service period of one Earnout Restricted Stock Units Former CarLotz option holders as of the effective time of the Merger received 640,421 earnout restricted stock units (Earnout RSUs). The Earnout RSUs vest if certain targets are met in the post-Merger period. The earnouts for the Earnout RSUs are subject to an earnout period, which is defined as the date 60 months following the consummation of the Merger. The Merger closed on January 21, 2021, and the earnout period expires January 21, 2026. Earnout RSUs will vest if any of the following conditions are achieved following January 21, 2021: i. If at any time during the 60 months following the Closing Date (the first business day following the end of such period, the “Forfeiture Date”), the closing trading price of the common stock is greater than $12.50 over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period (the “First Threshold”), 50% of the Earnout RSUs will vest. ii. If at any time prior to the Forfeiture Date, the closing trading price of the common stock is greater than $15.00 over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period (the “Second Threshold”), 50% of the Earnout RSUs will vest. iii. If either the First Threshold or the Second Threshold is not met on or before the Forfeiture Date, any unvested Earnout RSUs are forfeited. All unvested Earnout RSUs will vest if there is a change of control of the Company that will result in the holders of the common stock receiving a per share price equal to or in excess of $10.00 (as equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, special cash dividends, reorganizations, combinations, recapitalizations and similar transactions affecting the common stock) prior to the Forfeiture Date. The estimated fair value of the liability is determined by using a Monte-Carlo simulation model, which incorporates various assumptions, including expected stock price volatility, contractual term, dividend yield and stock price at grant date.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded no income tax benefits for the net operating losses incurred in the period due to its uncertainty of realizing a benefit from those items. All of the Company’s operating losses since inception have been generated in the United States. The Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon its ability to realize the deferred tax assets. Management has considered the Company’s history of cumulative net losses incurred since inception through September 30, 2022 and has concluded that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefits of the deferred tax assets. Management reevaluates the positive and negative evidence at each reporting period. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, no facts or circumstances arose that affected the Company’s determination as to the full valuation allowance established against the net deferred tax assets. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been established against the net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]
Restructuring Charges, Asset Impairment, and Assets Held For Sale	Restructuring Charges, Asset Impairment, and Assets Held For SaleOn June 21, 2022, the Company announced the closure of 11 hub locations and made the decision to not commence retail sales operations at 3 other locations with executed leases. The closures were part of a review of the business, with cash preservation and future profitable growth as key determining factors. Retail sales operations were ceased at these locations, with all hub closing activities completed by July 8, 2022. The Company has or intends to assign or sub-lease the lease contracts associated with the 11 closed and three unopened hub locations and has classified the assets and liabilities associated with the hub locations that we believe are assignable as of September 30, 2022 as held for sale. The assets and liabilities associated with certain hub locations that we believe we are likely to sublease as of September 30, 2022 are not classified as held for sale. In addition, the Company evaluated the recoverability of amounts associated with lease assets and long lived assets at the held for sale locations. The fair values of the lease assets and property and equipment were determined based on estimated future discounted cash flows for such assets using market participant assumptions, including data on the ability to sub-lease the properties. The charge for inventory reserves represents inventory that will be disposed of through the wholesale channel following the hub closures and is the difference between the estimated wholesale value and inventory cost. In conjunction with the hub closures, the Company recorded the following charges in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022: Three months ended September 30, 2022 Nine months ended September 30, 2022 Inventory losses associated with restructuring $ — $ 1,010 Operating lease asset impairment 323 2,871 Finance lease asset impairment 70 1,441 Property and equipment impairment 138 5,970 Loss on sale of assets related to closed hubs 25 25 Labor and other costs incurred closing hubs 292 757 Gain on lease assignment (236) (236) Occupancy 1,127 1,127 Severance 66 581 Contract termination costs 80 80 Total 1,885 13,626 The $1,010 charge for inventory reserves was recorded in cost of sales in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. The other $12,616 charges were recorded in Restructuring expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. The total costs recorded in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 represent the total amount that can be reasonably estimated to be incurred in connection with the restructuring. We cannot conclude how long it will take to sublease or assign each lease, so we cannot reasonably estimate other future costs associated with the restructuring. The carrying amount and major classes of assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are: As of September 30, 2022 Operating lease assets $ 15,906 Finance lease assets $ 4,668 Property and equipment $ 286 Total $ 20,860 Operating lease liabilities $ 17,123 Finance lease liabilities $ 5,171 Total $ 22,294

Lease assignment In October 2022, the Company assigned the lease of an unopened hub location to a third-party, assigned the lease of a closed hub location to a third-party, and subleased the lease of a closed hub location to a third-party. The Company remains secondarily liable for the lease obligation pursuant to a guarantee for one of the assigned leases and remains primarily liable for the lease obligation for the subleased lease.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, which consist of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022 and its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the current fiscal year or any other future periods.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities.
Restricted Cash	Restricted Cash As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, restricted cash included approximately $4,049 and $4,336, respectively. The restricted cash is legally and contractually restricted as collateral for lines of credit, including floorplan, and for the payment of claims on the reinsurance companies.
Advertising Cost	Advertising CostsThe Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Concentration of Credit Risk	Concentration of Credit Risk Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivables are limited due to the large diversity and number of customers comprising the Company’s retail customer base.
Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale	Assets and Liabilities Held For Sale As a result of the announced hub closures on June 21, 2022, the ROU and finance lease assets and liabilities associated with hub locations where the Company has or intends to assign the lease to a third-party or terminate the lease agreement (as
Revenues	Revenues The Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control of goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Control passes to the retail and wholesale vehicle sales customer when the title is delivered to the customer, who then assumes control of the vehicle. Retail Vehicle Sales We sell used vehicles to our retail customers through our hubs in various cities. The transaction price for used vehicles is a fixed amount as set forth in the customer contract. Customers frequently trade-in their existing vehicle to apply toward the transaction price of a used vehicle. Trade-in vehicles represent noncash consideration which we measure at estimated fair value of the vehicle received on trade. We satisfy our performance obligation and recognize revenue for used vehicle sales at a point in time when the title to the vehicle passes to the customer, at which point the customer controls the vehicle. We provide a 12-month/12,000-mile limited warranty on most retail vehicle sales. The limited warranty is not treated as a separate performance obligation given the nature of the limited warranty is to provide assurance as to the quality of the vehicle being sold. The revenue recognized by CarLotz includes the agreed upon transaction price, including any service fees. Revenue excludes any sales taxes, title and registration fees, and other government fees that are collected from customers. We receive payment for used vehicle sales directly from the customer at the time of sale or from third-party financial institutions within a short period of time following the sale if the customer obtains financing. Our exchange policy allows customers to initiate an exchange during the first seven days or 400 miles after delivery, whichever comes first. If the vehicle is returned, the sale and associated revenue recognition is reversed, and the vehicle is treated as a purchase of inventory. See the remainder of the Company’s revenue accounting policy related to wholesale, finance and insurance, and other revenue in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed on March 15, 2022. Wholesale Vehicle Sales Vehicles that do not meet the Company’s standards for retail vehicle sales, vehicles that did not sell through the retail channel within a reasonable period of time and vehicles that the Company determines offer greater financial benefit through the wholesale channel are sold through various wholesale methods. The Company satisfies its performance obligation and recognizes revenue for wholesale vehicle sales when the vehicle is sold at auction or directly to a wholesaler and title to the vehicle passes to the next owner. Additionally, the Company sold or will sell vehicles that were at the closed hub locations through the wholesale channel that may not have been sold through the wholesale channel if the hubs had remained open. Finance and Insurance, net The Company provides customers with options for financing, insurance and extended warranties. Certain warranties are serviced by a company owned by a major stockholder. All other services are provided by third-party vendors, and the Company has agreements with each of these vendors giving the Company the right to offer such services. When a customer selects a service from these third-party vendors, the Company earns a commission based on the actual price paid or financed. The Company concluded that it is an agent for these transactions because it does not control the products before they are transferred to the customer. Accordingly, the Company recognizes finance and insurance revenue at the point in time when the customer enters into the contract.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard affected all entities that lease assets and requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases (except for short-term leases that have a duration of less than one year) as of the date on which the lessor makes the underlying asset available to the lessee. For lessors, accounting for leases is substantially the same as in prior periods. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, to clarify how to apply certain aspects of the new leases standard. ASU 2016-02, as subsequently amended for various technical issues, was effective for emerging growth companies following private company adoption dates in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, and early adoption was permitted. We adopted ASC 842 for the year beginning January 1, 2022 using the modified retrospective transition approach applied at the beginning of the period of adoption, which did not result in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. Comparative periods presented in the financial statements continue to be presented in accordance with ASC 840. As permitted under the standard, we have elected the package of practical expedients for the transition to ASC 842, under which we did not reassess our prior conclusions regarding lease identification, lease classification, or initial direct costs for contracts existing as of the transition date. We have also elected to apply the following practical expedients for contracts existing as of the transition date and all new contracts after our adoption of ASC 842: 1) recognizing lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term for leases with a term of 12 months or less and not recognizing them on the balance sheet and 2) accounting for lease and non-lease components for all asset classes as a combined single unit of account. We have not elected the practical expedient related to all land easements nor the hindsight practical expedient. The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of $50.5 million of operating lease assets, which included an adjustment for deferred rent, and $52.6 million of operating lease liabilities on our opening consolidated balance sheet. We have implemented new business processes, accounting policies, systems and internal controls as part of adopting the new standard. See Note 14 for additional information on leases. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. The new model uses a forward-looking expected loss method, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. ASU 2016-13, as subsequently amended for various technical issues, is effective for emerging growth companies following private company adoption dates for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard to its financial statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes , which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for emerging growth companies following private company adoption dates in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.
