Why not go to the dealership and avoid the Amazon charge, unless Amazon will tow/deliver the new car, probably through a bad neighborhood, where it will be stolen.
Now that I think about it, maybe Hyandai dealers, are trying to get rid of car salesmen.
Also will Amazon be pushing Hyandai EV"s?

Comes in a box on your front porch
But, it’s REALLY heavy....
Lots of bubble wrap to play with so that’s cool π

You have to cram it in a little bix at UPS to send it back

I'm wondering what test driving will be like? Will Amazon have a virtual test driving section on their site? LOL
Enable this checkbox to add protestors blocking streets while driving through Dim cities.

How do you test drive it online?
Will it qualify for free delivery? ;)
And how do you return it if dissatisfied?
Is there a discount if the middleman is eliminated? (car dealer, salesman)

“some assembly required”
My guess is, they will deliver from the local dealers, not from Amazon warehouses.

I think you are thinking of the IKEA cars.
To: DallasBiff
A long time CarsDirect (Bill Gross) tried this idea. But Amazon will do it right.

Amazon isn’t selling the cars. Hyundai dealers can sell cars on Amazon, so maybe you can still test drive, etc.
To: DallasBiff
Itβs probably like how Costco sells cars.

“, unless Amazon will tow/deliver the new car, probably through a bad neighborhood, where it will be stolen.”
Per the article Amazon does not handle the car.
To: DallasBiff
It will be an interesting experiment to see, that’s for sure.

This doesn’t bypass the dealership.
