How Much Cheaper Are Parallel Imports Compared to 4S Stores?
1 Answers
Under normal circumstances, parallel imported cars are 10%~20% cheaper than those from 4S stores. The main reasons are: 1. Process: (1) The entire process for parallel imported cars is: manufacturer - free trade zone - customer. (2) For 4S stores, in addition to the above process, the cars also go through China's general distributor, regional distributor, and local distributor, etc. 2. After-sales service: (1) Vehicles purchased from 4S stores: The manufacturer provides a three-guarantee service and can be recalled normally by the manufacturer. Parallel imported cars: No manufacturer three-guarantee, owners need to purchase insurance for protection, and they are not included in manufacturer recalls.
