Opening day and Amazon already has over 1 million new and used automotive part in it’s index. Not bad for an initial offering!
Parts can be searched for by Car and Truck models to be able to quickly find the part you are looking for. This might be an interesting alternative to special ordering parts that are a little harder to find. Amazon prides them selves on having a large selection, and low prices, which will make it interesting to see how having a company this large get into the auto parts segment, might affect local sales.
Parts include both maintenance and repair items as well as upgrades for auto enthusiasts. There is even a section called “the Tire Rack” where you can choose tires and wheels.
As well as having name brands like Holley, Hurst, Raybestos and Schumacher, they will also feature over 250 independent retailers of automotive, truck and motorcycle parts. Some of the more notable auto parts retailers are Auto Barn, Horse Power Freaks and Summit Racing Equipment.
You can check out their inventory at Amazon Auto Parts]
