BURSTAmazon started selling new cars today. The online retailer and Internet giant has had its sights on shifting metal for some time now, and if you live in one of 48 cities in the US, and you're looking for a new Hyundai, it's ready for your business.
Hyundai has been working with Amazon for several years on its digital experience, adding Alexa to its cars and showcasing its products at Amazon.com. But now, with Amazon Autos, customers can go ahead and buy the car, not just learn about it so they can go to a dealer well-informed.
In fact, the dealerships remain part of the process even with Amazon Autos—hence the fact that the service is not rolling out nationwide.
