Heavy-use vehicles often look clean in photos but show specific wear patterns. Here's what to check: 1. Rear sag and suspension: ask for a side-profile photo of the car on level ground. If the rear sits noticeably lower than the front, the rear springs or shocks may be worn from constant heavy loads. Compare with factory ride height specs. 2. Pedal and seat wear: accelerator and brake pedals with polished metal patches, and a driver's seat bolster that is flattened or cracked, indicate high mileage or intensive commercial use — even if the odometer says otherwise. 3. Hitch and tow bar marks: check the rear bumper area in close-up photos for scratches, bolt holes, or a removed tow bar mount. Ask the seller directly whether the car ever towed. 4. Underbody and frame: request underbody photos. Look for bent or scraped crossmembers, fresh undercoating hiding damage, or uneven tire wear across the rear axle. 5. Data check: many ride-hailing cars in China have records in maintenance databases — a professional inspection agency can flag cars with commercial fleet history. If the seller refuses underbody or close-up photos, treat it as a warning sign and consider another vehicle.

Due to legal restrictions preventing unregistered vehicles from high-speed driving on public roads in China, most of our dynamic tests are conducted in a closed area (with a maximum speed of around 60 km/h). This is sufficient to test for suspension noise and low gear smoothness, but it cannot simulate high-speed wind noise and tire balance vibrations at 120 km/h.

Europe and some developed countries have very strict regulations on greenhouse gases. If required by customs, we will specify the exact refrigerant type and charge amount according to the vehicle's air conditioning compressor nameplate in the remarks section of the packing list and commercial invoice.
