How To Export A Chinese Car!

[@dominiquekouyate8470]

Benji / wheelsboy is the most knowledgeable car business partner you ll be able to find in mainland china. That s a fact, and i am a customer. Keep it up.

[@eden5260]

Nonsense 🤣 It's the most basic job there is They literally do nothing besides buying the car for you in China hence there are hundreds and hundreds of these businesses. At least some have been in the car business in China and doing import into to China for years and they also have stock. Comparing these with just an agent is downgrading

[@QimingLiu-u3i]

Risks Summary 1. No warranty: The so-called 0 mileage secondhand cars are exported through dealers rather than the official, which means very likely you won't get any repair services if you don't have parts imported/ mechanic who know how to fix. And some brands even refuse to have them repair after they officially enter the market. Yet good news is that EVs manufactured in recent years are fairly reliable, probably no serious problems will pop up for the first few years of usage. 2. Maintenance & Update: Normally EVs don't require maintenance on battery and motor. I personally own a 2023 BWM i3 and haven't spent a penny on maintenance with a mileage of 21,000 km. The main problem will be OTA update. New features and UIs might be unavailable if your internet service provider does not support data transmitted from China. I heard there are dealers in Russia who help with system update/ language. Perhaps you can use a VPN to make system update possible on your own. 3. Charging: You might need to do a research if the charger comes with the car is compatible with your local standard (current limit, voltage, frequency, etc,.) . If not you will have to get a converter. Ideally, you will have a garage with good electricity conditions, as some old apartment might not support a high power charger. Basically those are 3 factors you need to concern. I started working for a car exporter last week, feel free to ask if you have a problem

[@nathyg9329]

What are 0 mileage secondhand cars??

[@QimingLiu-u3i]

​@@nathyg9329 They're brand new cars sold in the name of "used cars". In China and most parts of the world, if you wanna export a brand-new vehicle you need to be authorised a dealership by the brand, which is unfeasible for most auto traders. However, you can bypass this rule by selling them as "used cars", which is now supported by the government. Hence, millions of brand-new cars are traded for multiple times without their tyres touching the ground and sold as "used cars". That is how you see a car of a brand in a country without authorised distributors.

[@QimingLiu-u3i]

China's automobile market now has an ongoing price war that makes the prices of vehicles significantly lower than the rest part of the world. You can get an ID.4 X for 22K USD, fob China's main port, with basically the same quality and performance. If you can manage to find a garage that can carry out maintenance, I am pretty sure this can be a good deal.

[@QimingLiu-u3i]

@@nathyg9329 IDK why my comments are getting swallowed by the platform over and over again. Long story short, they're brand new cars sold in the name of used cars to bypass the rule that only authorised dealers can legally export a brand new car. Grey market, parallel export, 0 mileage used car, call it whatever you like, they're brand-new

My main question is how do you service your car after importing a single car? There might not be a single other car like that in your country

[@eden5260]

Simple answer is you don't . It's the most underdeveloped market in china Taken advantage of by non-experts Chinese businesses who just want to make a lot of money . Export our of China literally started last year Export in this way doesn't go to Europe where it is illegal It goes to Russia , the Middle East , Africa and other markets that aren't mature . The process in China is easy the "Agent" Benji/wheels boy is going to buy the car in the dealership , adds his profit , send it to the port and from there on its own you. -The badges are in Chinese ! -The buttons are in Chinese ! -The screen is in Chinese with Chinese Apps that don't work abroad so no maps for navigation no music apps no android auto etc . - the electric port is Chinese standard not European or American Basically they don't do anything for you beside acting as an agent to buy a car in china and send it to the port. My comment is regarding all the exporters from China of which there are in the hundreds.

[@Ausf]

Assuming you can't do it yourself, you find someone local willing to do it for you. Obviously importing parts will take longer too. If you're buying electric, then there are at least fewer parts to service. Many countries have a gray, personal or classic import scheme, and people with unique cars face and overcome these issues if they want to own something like that. If money is no object, and you really want some interesting Chinese car you can't source locally, then it might be worth doing. If you think you're going to buy a cheap car, and legally drive it in your home country cheaper than buying local, then that's not going to happen.

cool video....would be great if you could share how about the approach of converting cars from left hand drive to right hand drive; as well as converting infortainment interface from putong hua to english

[@tren133]

You cannot convert from LHD to RHD. But certain carmakers do make RHD versions of their cars for sale in Thailand, Australia, UK, etc, so as the guy mentions, if you can get enough people together, they might be able to convince one of those carmakers to sell them a batch of RHD cars which they can then export. Although I do question how they are allowed to register and then deregister RHD cars to make them "used cars" when those cars are not road legal in China. Converting the infotainment system is far more possible since it is just software, but still can be very tricky. I think again, mostly they are looking at cars currently being officially exported, and those cars would have a english infotainment system which might be able to be installed onto a car that they are trying to export. However if a brand doesn't sell internationally, such as Li Auto, then probably there is no English version so they have to just send you the version with the Chinese language software.

Normally, you should always go to those importer who promises that they will be handling it if problem happens. As far as my understanding, your importer has the access to official warranty in China. So the next thing is they will ship your car back and let the manufacturer fix it.

[@Wheelsboy]

As discussed in the video, we will continue to provide you with the parts necessary to repair a vehicle, but you will need to find a mechanic who is able to repair the vehicle if there is not an official service center.

can't see it as a viable option other than in some specific situations. They don't use a CCS socket, so you'll have to use an adapter that as far as I have seen can't deliver more than 50-100kW. If they even work at all

7:50 why does it have to be registered and de registered. It doesn't make sense.

[@mehsanm]

This point bothered me too. Registered in whose name?

[@Wheelsboy]

They need to be registered in order to legally considered "secondhand" vehicles, which makes them eligible for export under Chinese regulations. New vehicles must be exported directly through the manufacturer. In this case, they would be registered to the export company that buys the car on your behalf here in China. Then the plate and registration are returned to the department of transportation, making the vehicle secondhand, but not registered and therefore free and clear to be legally exported.

[@saxphile]

The answer to my biggest question is at 18:51. Adapters are required for EVs. The AC adapter is cheap, but the DC adapter is expensive ($1,000+). I'd say that having to use an adapter would likely make the car non-compliant in most advanced economies. This means nullifying home insurance if you charge with AC at home, and you would likely get banned from commercial DC chargers unless those adapters receive electrical safety certification in your home country.

[@tren133]

I don't see why it would make it noncompliant in your so-called "advanced countries". In fact EV owners in the US already have to contend with the fact that Tesla uses its own plug while most other EVs use CCS/J1772 plugs, and there are even some older ChaDeMo Leafs. Nobody is losing their home insurance because they used a Tesla adapter to charge their Tesla on a JuiceBox home charger, or they bought a TeslaTap to charge their non-Tesla with their Tesla home charger.

[@saxphile]

@@tren133 The Tesla DC adapters only work because they are digitally compatible. The GBT DC standard is totally different from CCS or CHAdeMO, which explains why the DC adapters are so expensive. I very much doubt that DC charger operators would formally allow such adapters to be used with their chargers. In most countries that have formally adopted CCS (i.e., "advanced economies"), CCS (and sometimes CHAdeMO) is formally part of the electrical code. If your house burns down because you used an AC adapter that is not code-compliant, your insurer will very likely decline coverage because it is a high-current device (>10A at 240V). The US is a weird one, partly because SAE de facto sets the national standard but has no say over the electrical code.

Is the main blocker of Chinese EV sales into Canada its adherence to NHTSA?

[@mehsanm]

No that's true deu

[@tren133]

Not only does Canada adhere to NHTSA/FMVSS regulations, there is the additional hurdle that unless the carmaker officially sells the car in the US or Canada, in which case why would you try to privately import the car in the first place, it is simply illegal to import a "used" car for personal use in the US or Canada, unless it is REALLY used. To legally import a used car for private use and be able to register it, it has to be 25 years old if in the US or 20 years old if in Canada. Which means the only way to register a newish EV in US/Canada is through official channels, not via private importation. So if you want to import an old JDM Kei car or a classic European or Japanese sports car, that's fine, but you can't legally import a late model foreign car into the US or Canada.

@@tren133 hmm I see. Thanks. That's annoying. I really want to buy a Cyberster. If they're sold in Mexico, which there is a possibility as MG is already in Mexico, is there a way to buy it from Mexico and import it into Canada? Since Canada and Mexico are both signatory of USMCA?

[@tren133]

@@kevinlin4895 There is nothing stopping you from buying a car in Mexico and then driving it across the border as a visitor, but you still won't be able to register the car in the US or Canada. USMCA/NAFTA governs trade, but the issue here are US and Canadian safety regulations and importation laws, which are an entirely separate matter. Besides geopolitical factors, another reason there are many Chinese cars being sold in Mexico is that Mexico and Latin American nations use NCAP safety standards, which are largely harmonized with similar NCAP standards in Europe, China, Korea, Australia etc, so it is far easier for a car designed in China to be exported to places like Europe and Mexico, with only minor modifications, versus US and Canada. But ultimately, even if the Mexico sold car adheres to US/Canada safety standards, US and Canadian law essentially forbids the so called "grey import" of any foreign market cars to be legally registered for private use until they reach that 20-25 year old state.

Are the export documents for a new car different from the documents for a used one? I understand the loophole explained for getting new cars exported from China, but in my country, you must have a used car dealer licence to import any type of used car, but there's no licence required for new cars. Obtaining the used car licence isn't feasible for an individual because it's a whole process which includes inspection of your car service area, and you have to secure a USD50000 bond. So it all boils down to the documentation because it states that its a used car coming from China, then the licence will be required.

9:16 yes it is a pity that the geriatric i voted for put a 100% tariff on chinese EVs. america FORCES you to get a car. my local wendys wont serve you a burger after 6pm if you dont come in a car. the dealership model deserves to die out; tired of paying heavy markups for AWFUL american cars. no more bailouts, no more haggling with dealer, give me a chinese EV

Not a word about China who has 100% tariff on imports for the past two decades .

EU just slashed more tariffs on Chinese exported ev😂

As they should,china never let anyone compete fairly in their market why should the opposite be demanded

[@zefengc]

@@eden5260 that is funny. Ask ChatGPT how did Tesla built their factory in Shanghai in a year, and how much policy support they gained from Shanghai government. At the time, Tesla made far superior EV than any competitors in Mainland China. Also comparing that with EU and Biden Administration, they are now heading towards trade protectionism. How funny that is

@@eden5260 China let Tesla run a fully owned company in Shanghai.

[@eden5260]

@@Maplin-Ma always bringing up the one exception to the rule . Yes only Tesla so they can build up there own future electric car industry as they did copy is what china does the best . You bright up something I didn't even talk about which is funny No body owns China thank you for letting Tesla sell in china without crazy high taxes on import as long as they build the cars in China . So the EU should absolutely have tax on Chinese cars and if they want to avoid it build the factory in Europe

Jaguar Land Rover products harvest your data and re-sell it. A new Land Rover is simply a node on their network. The EU's mandatory E-Call standard is designed to monitor your movements and has a back door to allow your vehicles speakers & camera's to listen to you and see you.

Why a Chinese has a name like "Benji" ?

[@registerhand4720]

likely it is his English name, he must have a proper Chinese name, in Chinese characters.

They do it for international business relations. non Chinese people have a difficult time pronouncing Chinese name, that's why they use English names.
