Amazon to sell cars online partnered with Hyundai
Are you ready to witness a groundbreaking collaboration between Amazon and Hyundai that's set to transform the way we buy cars? Picture this: buying your dream car on Amazon and having it delivered to your doorstep or picked up at a nearby dealership. It's not just a dream anymore; it's about to become a reality.
Amazon has been making strides in the automotive space, providing virtual showrooms for select brands and tools for easy price comparison. Now, in a strategic partnership with Hyundai, Amazon is taking a giant leap forward. Starting next year, Hyundai dealerships will list their car models on Amazon, allowing users to explore various options and make purchases with their preferred payment methods.
Here's the interesting part: even though the transaction takes place on Amazon's platform, the actual seller of the vehicle is the dealership. Amazon acts as the facilitator, connecting customers with dealerships. This move is not only expected to simplify the car buying process but also enhance the visibility of dealerships.
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy expressed his enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “Hyundai is a very innovative company that shares Amazon’s passion for trying to make customers’ lives better and easier every day. Our broad, strategic partnership should do just that, from changing the ease with which customers can buy vehicles online to making it simple to use Alexa in Hyundai vehicles for entertainment, shopping, smart home adjustments, and calendar checks to enabling Hyundai to transform their customer experiences and business operations by moving to AWS. We look forward to inventing together for many years.”
But the collaboration doesn't stop there. Hyundai vehicles will integrate Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant by 2025, enhancing the in-car experience. Additionally, Hyundai will leverage Amazon Web Services (AWS) for cloud services.
The traditional car buying process has often been a source of frustration, with dealership experiences topping the list. While some manufacturers, like Tesla, have embraced a direct-to-consumer approach, legal restrictions in many states have limited this model. Amazon's partnership with Hyundai navigates around these challenges, ensuring that dealerships play a crucial role in the process.
As Amazon makes its mark in the automotive industry, it's not just about buying cars; it's about revolutionizing the entire experience. Get ready for a seamless and convenient way to bring your dream car home, thanks to the dynamic collaboration between Amazon and Hyundai.
