Amazon Launches Online Car-Buying Platform, Starting with Hyundai

The e-commerce giant now allows customers in 48 U.S. cities to purchase Hyundai vehicles online, with plans to expand brands and features in 2025.

Amazon Autos enables users to browse, finance, and purchase new Hyundai cars online, with pickup arranged at local dealerships.
The platform offers transparent, haggle-free pricing, upfront costs including taxes and fees, and trade-in options assessed by a third party.
Currently available in 48 U.S. cities, Amazon plans to expand to more cities, add additional car brands, and introduce leasing options next year.
The initiative provides dealerships access to Amazon’s vast customer base while maintaining the in-person pickup experience to foster customer relationships.
Amazon Autos aims to simplify the car-buying process by integrating it into its familiar online shopping ecosystem, removing traditional dealership pain points.
