    Looks like this is still routing through dealerships, not direct to customers:

    The structure still rewards dealerships, unlike the direct sales models that completely sidestep the business model. When vehicles go on sale at Amazon, the local Hyundai dealer will be the seller of record.

          Cheap Amazon junk isn’t regulated like cars are.

          As long as there are safety regulations only allowing certain cars that meet their standards to drive on the roads, I don’t really care. If any company wants to make a cheap knockoff that meets safety standards, go for it.
