Car Export FAQ
Questions that recur across car export inquiries, answered in the terms an inquiry should use.
What should the first message name?
The first message should name the category entry and the individual name exactly as listed, the general vehicle type under consideration, and the destination market in general terms. It should also state the questions the reply should answer, including the price, the quantity terms and the timing for the specific items named, and any document question paired with the entry and the name it concerns. A first message built in that order can usually be answered without a round of clarification.
Are specifications stated for listed names?
No specification for any listed name is stated on this site, and no page on this site states a configuration, a condition or a performance point for a listed name. The category pages list names, and the guide pages collect questions. A message that needs a specification point should ask about it as a question for the item actually named, rather than assuming a figure from elsewhere. The reply is the place where a specification question, if it can be answered at all, is answered for the item in question.
How are price, quantity terms and timing settled?
Price, quantity terms and timing are settled in the inquiry reply for the items actually named. The message should ask for them for those items, and before payment the price, the minimum order quantity and the lead time for the specific items named should be confirmed. No price figure, quantity figure or timing figure is stated on this site for any item, and the message should not assume one. Asking for the figures for named items gives the reply a clean basis for the order actually planned.
What documents can be requested?
Certificates are available upon request. A document question should name the category entry and the individual name exactly as listed, and ask which documents apply to that item and that market. No certificate name, issuing body or scope is stated on this site, and no certificate is attached to any particular entry or name. The reply can state which documents apply to the items actually named, and what further information is needed before those documents can be addressed.
Which category entries does this site cover?
This site covers twenty-two category entries, each with a page of its own, and the names grouped under each entry are listed on that entry page. The entries cover new energy vehicles and electric cars in the broad sense, together with an Accessories entry and an Others entry that groups names from several makers under one heading. A buyer who knows the entry can go straight to its page; a buyer who does not can start from the home page directory.
What happens after the inquiry is sent?
The reply addresses the entry, the name and the questions in the message, for the items actually named, or states what further information is needed before they can be addressed. The buyer then answers the follow-up points in the same terms, keeping the thread anchored to the entry and the name from the first message onward. If the reply asks for a point the first message omitted, the follow-up message should supply that point alongside the entry and the name, so that nothing in the thread has to be reassembled.
Before payment, confirm the price, the minimum order quantity and the lead time for the specific items named in the inquiry.
To ask about a category on this page, name the category and the item exactly as listed, and state the questions the reply should answer.
