A year ago, Amazon, the e-commerce powerhouse, launched its online car sales initiative with Hyundai. Now, Ford is entering the scene, but with a focus on certified used vehicles.
On Monday, Ford revealed that shoppers can now browse, finance, and buy certified pre-owned Ford cars through Amazon Autos. The collaboration ensures dealerships—an essential source of income for Ford—remain involved. According to Ford, customers can view inventory from participating local dealers on Amazon’s platform, handle most of the necessary paperwork online, and then arrange a time to collect their chosen car.
Ford stated that every certified pre-owned vehicle sold by dealers on Amazon Autos includes a money-back guarantee. Buyers have the option to return the car within 14 days or 1,000 miles, whichever is reached first.
Amazon Autos operates similarly to the rest of Amazon’s vast e-commerce platform. Users can look for vehicles from participating dealers by selecting model, trim, color, and features. Financing and electronic paperwork can also be completed directly on the Amazon Autos website.
When Amazon Autos made its debut last year, it concentrated on selling new cars, specifically Hyundai. With Ford’s entry, the platform now expands into the certified pre-owned vehicle segment, offering a related but distinct market.
At first, Ford vehicles on Amazon Autos will only be available in select cities, such as Los Angeles, Seattle, and Dallas.
