About the team

Amazon Smart Vehicles’ vision is to bring the Alexa experience into the car, so you can take her with you on the go. Voice technology shines in environments where you’re occupied with other tasks.

That’s a big reason why Alexa has become so popular in places like the kitchen or living room, and why we see the opportunity in automotive as big as the smart home.

With Alexa in the car, customers can use their voice to play music, control in-cabin comfort features like AC / heater, control smart home devices from the car, and access tens of thousands of skills built by third-party developers all while keeping their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.
