Buying a car on Amazon doesn\u2019t seem to be super different from buying pretty much anything else on the website. According to an Amazon blog post<\/a>, you\u2019ll be able to search for vehicles in your area based on model, trim, color, and features. Once you\u2019ve selected a car, you can choose to pick it up or have it delivered to a local dealership, and then check out using the same standard payment or financing options you normally use on the site. Do Prime members get free shipping? I sure hope so.<\/p>\n

Hyundai is also building in Alexa into its cars starting in 2025 as part of its partnership with Amazon. This will let you ask Alexa to not only do the usual Alexa things like playing music and setting timers, but also ask for directions, traffic updates and weather reports, and control the car\u2019s media player and navigation system.<\/p>\n
