"If you've been dreaming of adding a mid-sized SUV to your cart alongside a bulk pack of granola bars and a new air fryer-well, we're not quite there yet. But that day is getting closer: Amazon has officially rolled out its car-buying program. But before you prepare your driveway to make room for a two-ton Prime delivery, you should know that buying a car on Amazon isn't exactly like buying a Kindle."
"Search: You go to the Amazon Autos section and filter by model, trim, color, and your zip code. Inventory: You're looking at real cars sitting on real local dealer lots. Purchasing: This is the cool part. You can see the actual price, run a credit check, apply for financing, and put down a deposit directly through Amazon. No sitting in a glass office for three hours while a salesperson repeatedly "checks with the manager.""
Amazon launched a car-buying program that links shoppers to local dealer inventory through the Amazon Autos section. New-vehicle options are currently limited, with Hyundai as the main partner and models like the Santa Fe, Tucson, and Ioniq available; major brands such as Toyota and Ford are not yet offered. Used listings include certified pre-owned inventory and some fleet vehicles. The platform lets buyers filter by model, trim, color, and zip code; view real dealer prices; run credit checks; apply for financing; and place deposits. After paperwork, buyers schedule pickup or delivery. Participating Hyundai dealerships may offer a three-day or 300-mile return window. The service is not a Prime-style instant delivery option.
