• Online Shopping and Financing: Customers can browse participating inventory within a 75-mile radius, view itemized pricing, and secure financing from a selection of banks, including Ford Credit, all on Amazon.
• Dealer Relationship: The customer relationship remains with the local participating Ford dealer, who handles pricing, vehicle pickup, and all future service needs. Amazon facilitates the initial online transaction.
• Availability: The program is launching in Los Angeles, Seattle, and Dallas, with plans to expand to additional markets.

 ”The program is new, but initial dealer sign-ups have been positive, with about 160-180 dealers expressing interest and around 20 already launched or launching soon. Ford is gathering feedback to share more insights as the program grows,” said Lane.
