One partner, door to port
What's included when you source Kia through EV Auto Pro
No hidden fees. Every line item disclosed on the pro forma invoice before you pay a deposit.
Factory-traceable sourcing
We procure Kia units in China with traceable invoicing, VIN and configuration confirmed in writing before you pay.
Pre-shipment inspection
Condition, appearance, mileage, configuration, battery status and basic functions checked before loading. Photo and video report sent to you.
Full export document set
Commercial invoice, packing list, sales contract, export declaration, certificate of origin and vehicle certificate as required by your market.
Destination certification support
EAC (Russia / CIS), GCC / SASO (Gulf), INMETRO (Brazil) and other market conformity handled or coordinated with your broker.
Shipping your way
RoRo, container or China–Europe block train to your port. CIF quotes include marine cargo insurance; FOB if you use your own forwarder.
Parts and after-sales
Common spare and maintenance parts supplied after delivery. Warranty situation for your country explained honestly before you order.
Straight talk on the parallel-export channel
Kia sells through official channels in China only, so export units move through China's parallel-export channel. We source the units, handle export and destination-market documentation and shipping, and explain the warranty and after-sales implications for your country before you commit — not after.
About the Brand
Who is Kia?
Kia builds in China through its Yancheng joint venture in Jiangsu. Unlike most foreign joint ventures, Kia has deliberately converted that plant into an export base as well as a domestic one — the EV5 electric SUV sold in Australia and several other markets is built there. The Chinese domestic range covers the K3 and K5 sedans, the Sportage and the EV5.
Kia genuinely exports China-built vehicles to a wide list of countries, but it does so through Kia's own distribution network — dealers appointed by Kia, with Kia warranty behind them. That is a real programme and worth knowing about, but it is not a channel a third-party trader can buy into. Domestic-market cars bought in China and shipped out follow the parallel-export route instead, and the two should not be confused.
Kia does export China-built vehicles, but through its own appointed distributors with Kia warranty behind them — that channel is not open to third-party traders. Domestic-market units bought in China and shipped abroad move through China's parallel-export channel instead. That is legal in the right corridors, but the factory warranty and Kia dealer support in your market will not necessarily apply, and we make the distinction explicit before you commit.
EV Auto Pro sources Kia from China for export. For dealers and fleet buyers we handle procurement with factory-traceable invoicing, export and destination-market documentation (EAC / GCC / INMETRO), and shipping. Ask us for current availability and a landed-cost quote for your market.
Why Kia
Why dealers ask us for Kia
A Real Export Plant
Yancheng is one of the few foreign joint-venture plants in China deliberately built up as an export base — the manufacturing is already geared to overseas standards.
Korean Badge, China Cost
Kia carries mainstream brand acceptance in almost every market while the units are built on a Chinese cost base.
EV5 Is China-Built
The EV5 sold in Australia and elsewhere comes out of Yancheng, so the electric product here is proven against export homologation.
Channels Kept Distinct
Kia's own export programme and third-party parallel export are different routes with different warranty outcomes, and we say which one applies to you.
