The saving is conditional
A modified-vehicle route may reduce the purchase cost for an eligible model, but the saving varies by vehicle, channel, programme and required equipment.
Not every model qualifies
Approved chassis, export programmes and certification requirements limit the available brands and trims. Eligibility should be confirmed before the route is used in a quotation.
Compare the delivered specification
Required equipment and documentation can offset part of the initial saving. Importers should compare the final vehicle specification and total route cost, not one discount line.
Check route eligibility before comparing cost
A modified-vehicle route only makes sense after confirming that the base vehicle, planned equipment, certification work and destination requirements can be handled through that route. Compare the final compliant specification and total landed cost, including conversion, testing, documents and delay risk. A lower base price does not by itself make the route cheaper or executable.
