Renewing a domain you already own cannot be linked to from outside — it needs your account session — so those links open each registrar's own page for .auto. Moving to a cheaper registrar is a transfer, which extends the expiry you already have by one year at the new registrar's price. It is normally blocked for 60 days after registration and after a previous transfer. None of these links earns this site anything today — see disclosure.
If you let it expire
Recovering a lapsed .auto costs $4100.40 at Dynadot — a restore fee, not a renewal, and 2.0× the cheapest renewal above. The redemption window is 30 days by Dynadot's reckoning, then 4 more before the name is deleted. Dynadot is the only registrar tracked here that publishes this figure, so it is one registrar's price rather than a market rate — the rest are here.
