Echo Auto works like any other Alexa device, which means you can ask it to create a shopping list, ask Alexa where the nearest Starbucks is, or get directions while you're driving. You can also use it to have audio calls with other Alexa-powered devices.
Echo Auto will be available by invitation only later this year. The invitation price is $24.99, but the regular price will be $49.99.
