Amazon In-Vehicle Delivery Service Launched In Pittsburgh

PITTSBURGH, PA - If you own a General Motors or Volvo vehicle, you now have the luxury of having your Amazon orders delivered to its parking space.

Amazon on Tuesday announced it’s rolling out the vehicle delivery service in 37 cities, including Pittsburgh. Amazon Key-In Car is available at no extra charge to Amazon Prime members.

“In-car delivery gives customers that same peace of mind and allows them to take the Amazon experience with them,” Peter Larsen, Vice President of Delivery Technology, Amazon, said in a statement. “And with no additional hardware or devices required, customers can start ordering in-car delivery today.”

In-car delivery is available to customers with a compatible 2015 or newer Chevrolet, Buick, GMC or Cadillac vehicle with an active OnStar account, and customers with a 2015 or newer Volvo vehicle with an active Volvo On Call account. More vehicle makes and models will be added over time.

Here’s how the service works:

• Download the Amazon Key app and then link your Amazon account with their connected car service account. Once setup is complete and the delivery location has been registered, shop on Amazon.com and select the in-car delivery option at checkout.

• On delivery day, the Amazon Key app will let you know if you’re parked within range of the delivery location and provide notifications with the expected 4-hour delivery time window. The app also notifies customers when the delivery is on its way, and the package has been delivered.

Customers have the ability to track when their car was unlocked and re-locked in the app’s activity feed, and rate their in-car delivery.
