Amazon has moved beyond books and electronics-the retail giant now lets shoppers buy a car with the same click-driven ease as ordering household staples. The new Amazon Autos storefront hosts thousands of vehicles, from a 2025 Hyundai Elantra hybrid sedan to a 2020 Chevrolet Trax crossover SUV.
How the Online Car Buying Works
The process mirrors Amazon’s classic checkout flow with a few extra steps:
- Browse listings filtered by make, model, year, price, and location
- Choose payment: finance, lease, pay in full, or cash
- Add trade-in details for an instant offer on a current vehicle
- Apply manufacturer rebates automatically surfaced by the system
- Select protection plans backed by the automaker, not Amazon
- Enter contact info and upload a driver’s license plus proof of insurance
- Schedule pickup at a nearby dealership; payment is processed online
A Sophia A. Reynolds test-run found the experience “almost as easy as snagging a new matching set and winter boots,” noting the only real friction was additional paperwork.
