Start with the same vehicle
A useful price comparison starts with the model year, exact trim, powertrain, quantity and condition. Record colours, required options and destination. A China retail guide price and an export quotation describe different transactions; neither should be presented as the other.
Name the port and the trade term
For sea shipments, FOB and CIF allocate responsibilities differently. Under FOB, the buyer normally arranges the main carriage. CIF includes seller-arranged freight and insurance to the named destination port; it does not mean risk transfers only on arrival. Write the port and Incoterms edition into the quotation. For container or multimodal routes, ask which rule suits the actual handover.
Compare the complete proposal
Ask for an itemised scope covering vehicle, preparation, inland movement, export documents, carriage and insurance where applicable. Check exclusions, validity, payment stages and procurement milestones. Import duties, destination taxes, port charges and registration are assessed separately unless expressly included. Send your model, trim, quantity and destination to request an order-specific proposal.
Questions, answered.
Is a guide price a confirmed export offer?
No. Request a quotation for the exact vehicle, quantity, destination and agreed scope.
Does CIF automatically include import taxes and registration?
No. Confirm destination charges and local requirements separately.
