Chinese EVs ship with GB/T charging ports, which are not used in Europe (Type 2/CCS2), North America (J1772/CCS1/NACS), or most of Latin America. Plan for these extras: 1. GB/T to local standard adapter or converter box: this lets you charge at public stations. A simple passive adapter works for AC charging; DC fast charging needs an active converter, which is expensive — many owners skip it and rely on AC. 2. Portable charger swap: the included travel charger has a GB/T plug. Buy a local wallbox or a portable EVSE with your country's plug instead. 3. Home electrical check: confirm your home circuit can handle 7–11 kW, and have an electrician install a dedicated line if needed. Ask the exporter for the car's charging port photos and on-board charger capacity before buying. Budget roughly a few hundred dollars for adapters and a wallbox. Without planning, you may end up with a car that can only trickle-charge from a wall socket.

As long as you provide us with a genuine and valid bank SWIFT MT103 wire transfer message (receipt) within the payment deadline specified in the contract, we will reserve the vehicle and continue with the port operations, even if the funds are held up in the intermediary bank for several days.

It depends on the car's value, type and destination. RORO means the car is driven onto the vessel and secured on deck or in the hull. It is usually cheaper per car and does not involve container packing fees. The downside: the car sits exposed to salt air for weeks, and RORO service is limited to ports with dedicated terminals. Container shipping (one 20ft or 40ft container per 1-2 cars) costs more but gives much better protection. It is strongly recommended for electric vehicles (battery safety regulations), luxury cars, and vehicles going on long voyages or rough sea routes. Practical tips: whichever method you choose, ask for the car to be shipped with a full battery charge disconnected at the terminals, tire pressures adjusted, and a condition report with photos signed at loading. For EVs, confirm the shipping line accepts used electric vehicles and what state-of-charge limits apply.
