We repeatedly confirm and emphasize to buyers before sale: after leaving mainland China, most Chinese smart electric vehicle ecosystems (such as cloud voice assistants, online maps, OTA updates) will be permanently offline.

Do not trust false promises from other channels claiming "perfect overseas unlocking and continuous official OTA updates."
