You'll have access to Fidelity's full suite of financial tools and resources—including practical education on money basics, major life milestones (like buying a home, planning for college, or retirement), and smart saving and investing strategies.
Lithia & Driveway’s 401(k) Plan helps you save and invest for the future. You can choose how your contributions are taxed—now or later—and you have access to a wide range of investment options to match your comfort with risk and potential returns. Fidelity administers the plan.
The 401(k) Plan is available to all team members.
You'll be able to access your vested 401(k) account when you retire, leave the Company, become permanently disabled, or in the event of your death. In certain situations, you may also be eligible to take a withdrawal while you're still employed—if specific requirements are met.
You can enroll in the 401(k) Plan starting on your hire date. Lithia & Driveway will automatically set up an account for you and deduct 3% from your pay on a pre-tax basis, 45 days after your hire date, if you don't opt out or select a different contribution percentage. Here's what that means:

Be sure to contribute at least $2,500 this year to get the maximum Company match!
