As Amazon gears up for refreshes across its consumer hardware portfolio, potentially including redesigned Fire TV Sticks and new Kindle models, one of its niche smart home offshoots appears to have reached the end of the road. Amazon’s car-centric Alexa accessory, the Echo Auto, has vanished from active sale on Amazon, leaving buyers to wonder whether the hardware giant is quietly pulling the plug on its in-car dongle.
The missing listing was first flagged by users on Reddit, who were tracking upcoming seasonal sales and noticed the device was no longer discoverable via direct search queries. The official Amazon product page for the second-generation Echo Auto now lists the gadget as “Currently unavailable,” with no restocking timeline or estimated delivery date provided.
