According to the announcement from the two companies, Amazon will start selling Hyundai cars online in the United States in 2024.
The deal builds on an earlier announcement made two years ago to extend Hyundai’s digital showroom on Amazon.com, where buyers can personalize a car, find out the pricing, and choose a dealer to carry out the transaction.
According to the companies, customers will be able to purchase, assemble, and shop for a car via Amazon.com and arrange for delivery through a nearby Hyundai dealer.
In 2018, Hyundai launched its first digital showroom on Amazon.com.
At the Los Angeles Auto Show, the most recent version was unveiled.
Hyundai Motor CEO Jay Chang stated in a statement, “Partnering with one of the most customer-centric organizations in the world unlocks incredible opportunities as we continue to expand our portfolio, grow our sales network, transition to electrification, and realize the future of smart mobility.”
As part of the new arrangement, 2025 new Hyundai car purchasers will also be able to use their cars to access Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant.
