Car shoppers in Dallas and 47 other U.S. cities can now browse, order, finance, and schedule pickup of a new Hyundai vehicle from a local participating dealer directly on Amazon.
Amazon Autos offers online automotive shopping from Hyundai dealers across major metropolitan areas nationwide. The online marketplace said it continues to add more Hyundai dealerships, and next year, it will roll out “additional manufacturers, brands, cities, and new functionality.”
The service is now available in other Texas cities as well, including Austin, Houston, and San Antonio.
Amazon Autos said it offers customers a simple, end-to-end online experience to buy their next vehicle, allowing them to:
“We’re partnering with dealers and brands to redesign car shopping—making it more transparent, convenient, and customer-friendly,” Fan Jin, global head of Amazon Autos, said in a statement. “With Amazon Autos, we’re bringing the simplicity and ease customers expect from Amazon to car shopping, one of their largest purchases, while offering dealers a new channel to connect with a broad audience.”
“We’re excited to have Hyundai as our exclusive launch partner and look forward to welcoming more brands and expanding our selection to customers as the program grows,” Jin added. “It’s still early for us and we welcome customer and dealer feedback as we continue to add new functionality, expand to additional brands, and iterate on the customer experience.”
For dealers, Amazon Autos said it offers a new sales channel that connects them with millions of Amazon customers.
The company said that by streamlining the initial browsing and purchasing steps online, Amazon Autos enables dealers to focus on the moment when customers pick up their new car at the dealership.
Customers can search available vehicles from local participating dealers by model, trim, color, features and more, all on Amazon Autos. Once customers select a vehicle, they can secure financing, e-sign paperwork, and complete their order with a few clicks.
After finalizing their payment information, customers will select a day and time to pick up their new car from that local dealership.
Amazon Autos said it provides “transparent pricing” from local dealers, eliminating the need for negotiation, and that the price customers see at check-out is the price they pay, inclusive of all taxes and fees.
Customers can get a firm trade-in value for their current vehicle by answering questions about the vehicle’s condition, Amazon Autos said. The value is provided by an independent third-party and can then be applied toward the purchase price of their new car through Amazon Autos.
