Honda and Acura announced Amazon Prime Amazon Key-in-Car in-car delivery. Starting today, Honda is offering Key by Amazon In-Car Delivery service for subscribers of its HondaLink Remote Services connected-car system. Owners of the 2019 and 2020 model year Acura RDX with an active AcuraLink service and Amazon Prime memberships can opt to have their Amazon packages delivered directly inside of their vehicle.
On delivery day, customers park within two blocks of their selected delivery address. They will receive a 4-hour delivery window, and an “Arriving Now” notification when the delivery driver is headed to the customer’s vehicle. Once Amazon determines that the customer’s car is within range of the delivery address, the driver will locate the car using its GPS location. After the vehicle is identified, the driver scans the package and requests for the vehicle to be unlocked. The driver then places the package inside the vehicle and requests for the vehicle to be relocked. Once the in-car delivery is completed, the customer receives a notification from the Key app letting them know that their car is locked and their package is waiting inside.
For a limited time Amazon customers will receive a $10 gift card after placing their first Key In-Car Delivery order.
Key by Amazon In-Car Delivery is available at no additional cost to owners of select trims of Accord, Accord Hybrid and Insight sedans, Passport and Pilot SUVs, and Odyssey minivan with a HondaLink Remote Package subscription. Customers must also be Prime members and located in one of 50 cities and surrounding areas supported by the Key service
Owners of the 2019 and 2020 model year Acura RDX with an active AcuraLink service and Amazon Prime memberships can opt to have their Amazon packages delivered directly inside of their vehicle, rather than left on their doorstep or elsewhere, through Key by Amazon In-Car Delivery. Key In-Car Delivery is available through the newest version of AcuraLink, Acura’s connected-car system that made its debut on the third-generation RDX.
The addition of Key by Amazon In-Car Delivery expands the robust capabilities of the smartphone-based AcuraLink service and app. The third and latest-generation of AcuraLink offers access to cloud-based services, information and music, including the ability to make vehicle service appointments. Additional subscription services are available, including advanced capabilities like vehicle remote starting, geofencing and speed alerts for parents of teen drivers, a stolen vehicle locator, enhanced roadside assistance, automatic collision notification and even a personal concierge service.
