The exterior paint is well-maintained; the body structure shows no signs of repair or major accidents. The interior is clean and tidy. Safety indicator lights are normal; passive safety features such as airbags are in good working order; all electronic components are functioning properly; and both static and dynamic equipment are complete. Driving the vehicle is smooth and efficient, with no issues with ignition, starting, acceleration, cornering, deceleration, or braking. Acceleration is rapid, and power output is smooth and comfortable, with no idling vibration. Overall, the vehicle's condition is fair. The body frame structure shows no deformation or twisting, and there are no signs of fire or water damage. There are signs of repainting, but the overall paint is in good condition, ruling out major accidents. It offers good visibility, a spacious, bright, and well-ventilated interior, making it suitable for family use.
We will remove the chassis guard to physically inspect the battery pack's lower shell for serious dents or scratches, and check for signs of mud or sand intrusion in the waterproof vent at the edge of the battery pack.
A professional pre-shipment inspection typically costs a small fraction of the vehicle price and routinely pays for itself. A thorough inspection covers: paint thickness measurement across 30+ points to map body repairs; structural assessment of pillars, rails and crossmembers for accident damage; engine and transmission operation; a full electronic scan for fault codes; suspension and underbody checks for leaks and rust; and, for EVs, battery SOH and thermal management performance. You receive a written report with photos before the car is loaded — if the car fails, you can stop the shipment or renegotiate. Skipping the inspection to save a small fee is the classic false economy in used car importing: discovering a problem after arrival is far more expensive than preventing it at origin.
