First it was books, then household products; now you can buy an electric car
from online shopping giant Amazon.

The Japanese unit of German auto giant BMW on Wednesday started selling its
i3 electric models on Amazon.co.jp.

The high-end automaker's small electric vehicle has been popular in European
and North American markets, but BMW Japan wants to find more customers
through the online retailer, a spokesman said in Tokyo.

"We have 46 dealers (which sell the electric model) in Japan, but we hope
this e-selling will cover the entire market more thoroughly," the spokesman
said.

"This will widen the sales channel and improve convenience for customers.

"So many people are using the website. We would like to research potential
customer groups who may be interested in our products."

Two i3 models are available on Amazon.co.jp, a regular BMW i3 with a range
of 229 kilometres and i3 Range Extender that runs up to 300 kilometres on
one battery charge, the company said.

Customers accustomed to completing their purchases in one click might,
however, be disappointed.

After loading the car into their virtual shopping cart, potential buyers
will have to wait for a phone call from BMW requesting documents proving
they have a parking space and a place to charge the vehicle. – AFP, April 1,

While you can’t currently use Amazon to purchase a car in the United States,
that doesn’t mean the possible may not be right around the corner.
