Amazon now lets you buy used cars, but only if you’re in Los Angeles
E-commerce giant Amazon is now expanding its automotive business to include used cars, reports The Verge. Dealers can post their inventory directly on the platform, where customers can easily browse current deals.
This venture will start with Hyundai dealers, as Amazon already has a partnership with the South Korean automaker. They’re backing it up with solid customer protections like a three-day or 300-mile return window and at least a 30-day, 1,000-mile limited warranty on every car. After that, Amazon plans to add more car brands to the mix.
They’re starting in Los Angeles first, but the plan is to bring the service to more cities soon. This is just the latest way Amazon is trying to make buying car easier and it can’t get much easier than buying one straight from your phone or computer.
By adding used cars to its platform, Amazon is jumping into a growing market and going up against other online car sellers. With so many customers already shopping on Amazon, they’ve got a pretty good shot at changing how people buy cars online.
