What's the difference between a "new," "used," and salvage/accident Chinese EV listing?

Short answer: New means zero-km factory stock; used means a previously registered car with mileage; salvage/accident units are a distinct, disclosed category we don't mix in.

Our listings are clearly separated by condition:

  • New — zero-km factory or dealer stock, first owner will be you, full manufacturer documentation.
  • Used — a previously registered vehicle in China with real mileage, service history where available, and (for EVs) a battery state-of-health reading taken before listing.
  • Salvage / accident — vehicles with prior collision, flood or write-off history are a distinct category with mandatory disclosure; we don't list these mixed in with clean used stock, and most buyers should avoid EV salvage units unless they specifically understand battery-pack damage risk.

Every listing states its condition up front — ask us for the vehicle history and, on used EVs, the battery health report before you order.
