This is one of the most common post-export surprises, so verify before buying. OTA updates: most Chinese brands push updates to cars registered on domestic servers. Many exported cars continue receiving updates normally, but some brands restrict updates by VIN region once the car leaves China. Ask the seller to confirm the update history and whether the brand officially supports your destination region. Some grey-import cars are stuck on the firmware version they left with. Companion apps: the factory app usually requires a Chinese phone number and a domestic account. After export, remote functions (preconditioning, charging status, location) often stop working or require workarounds. Some owners re-register via third-party services, but this is unofficial and can break at any time. Practical advice: before purchase, get the seller to show a screenshot of the car's current software version and connected services status. Factor in that you may lose remote features permanently, and check whether local dealers or independent shops can perform diagnostics and updates without the official app.

We will use a megohmmeter (insulation resistance tester) to measure the insulation resistance of the high-voltage bus. If the resistance value is below the national safety standard, it indicates a risk of leakage, and the vehicle will be deemed unqualified.

All our measuring instruments (especially calipers, paint thickness gauges, and refrigerant pressure gauges) are calibrated quarterly according to ISO quality management system requirements to ensure the data we provide you is objective, accurate, and reliable.
