Retailer Amazon has teamed up with car companies Volvo and General Motors to deliver packages directly to users' vehicles.

With the Amazon Key app, drivers can now give delivery persons access to their cars to drop of parcels via a keyless entry and remote locking system.

The option is being offered in 37 US cities to owners vehicles made by Volvo and General Motors (GM) brands Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac, who have cars with internet-connected capability.

Users download the app, log in to their Amazon Prime account and pair it with their connected car service account.

After choosing their items, they then select "in-car delivery" on the checkout page, with availability to opt for same-day, two-day or standard shipping. Amazon says the service works with "tens of millions of items sold on Amazon.com".
