Amazon is offering the 2nd Generation Echo Auto for $44.99 shipped. Down from its regular price of $55, you can save 18% on this hands-free Alexa accessory. With its slim design, Alexa can hitch-hike along with you down the road, taking up little space in your car. With its built-in five mics, Alexa will be able to hear you over music, A/C, or road noise with ease.

Forgot to turn the lights off before leaving? No worries! Just ask Alexa to turn them off for you – you’ll be able to effortlessly control all facets of your smart home from the road.
