Importing a specific GWM model from China follows a predictable sequence. This walkthrough covers the seven stages you will move through when sourcing a Tank 300, Haval H6, or any other GWM unit through GWM Export. We are an independent exporter and not affiliated with Great Wall Motor. Every price and vehicle detail below is grounded in what we actually hold and list.
Stage 1: Inquiry
You start by telling us the exact model, trim, model year, and destination port. For a Tank 300 or Haval H6, be specific about drivetrain and seating because these affect both the reference FOB price and whether the unit can be registered in your market. Every GWM unit we stock is left-hand drive, so confirm your country accepts LHD before going further.
We hold stock at two Chinese yards — Tianjin and Guangzhou — and ship to Russia, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Nigeria, Kenya, Mexico, and Chile. If you are sourcing a Cannon, for example, our current used inventory spans 2019–2026 with reference FOB prices from $7,500 to $19,500, and 210 units in stock. A 2023 Cannon 2.0T Commercial Diesel 2WD Elite Long Bed Pickup with 27,000 km is listed at $14,500 FOB; a 2019 Cannon 2.0T 4WD Elite Standard Cab Pickup with 80,000 km is listed at $10,500 FOB. These are the kinds of concrete numbers we return at inquiry stage, not vague estimates.
Stage 2: Quote
Once we know the model and destination, we issue a quote that separates the vehicle price from the logistics and duty estimate. The reference FOB price is the ex-yard price in China. On top of that you add ocean freight, insurance, destination port charges, and import duty. We break these out line by line so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
If you want a sense of scale before committing, look at our used GWM Good Cat category: 49 units in stock, model years 2021–2025, reference FOB price range $5,200–$11,500, LHD, sourced from the China domestic market. The same structure applies to every model family. We list real mileage, registration date, and photos per listing. If a number is missing, we say so rather than fill it in. Your quote is only as good as the data behind it, so we keep the two together.
Stage 3: Sample
For first-time importers, the sample stage is where you validate the unit before committing to a full order. We send additional photos and, where available, a short walkaround video. You can also request the registration date and odometer reading from the listing. This is your chance to confirm that the Tank 300 or Haval H6 you are looking at matches the description.
Because we source from the China domestic market, the vehicle history is local. That means the registration date is a real date, the mileage is a real reading, and the photos are of the actual unit. If you are buying a used GWM Good Cat, for example, you will see the same fields across all 49 listings in that family. We would rather you walk away at sample stage than discover a mismatch at the port. Use WhatsApp to ask for anything the listing does not show.
Stage 4: Production
The word production is slightly misleading for used vehicles. In practice, this stage is preparation: the unit is cleaned, checked, and made ready for export. If you have ordered a container shipment, we load and secure the vehicle. If you have chosen RoRo, we deliver it to the terminal.
We do not modify vehicles. We do not tune them. What we do is ensure the unit matches the listing and the paperwork matches the unit. For a Tank 300 or Haval H6, that means confirming the VIN, the model year, and the trim against the documents. We also confirm that the vehicle is left-hand drive, since every GWM unit we stock is LHD. If a unit fails any of these checks, it does not move to the next stage.
Stage 5: QC
Quality control on a used export is about verification, not restoration. We check the odometer against the registration date, review the photos against the physical unit, and confirm that the listing details are accurate. For a Cannon pickup, for example, we confirm the bed length, drivetrain, and fuel type match what was quoted.
The documents that travel with every exported GWM include the commercial invoice, bill of lading, and certificate of origin. Your customs broker in the destination country will ask for these. We prepare them at QC stage so there is no delay at the port. If you are importing a used GWM Good Cat, the same three documents apply. We also provide the export documentation your destination customs authority expects. If something is unclear, we tell you before the unit ships, not after.
Stage 6: Shipping
Your unit leaves China from either Tianjin or Guangzhou. Which port we use depends on the route and the vessel schedule. RoRo is typically cheaper and simpler; container shipment offers more protection and is often preferred for higher-value units. We ship to Russia, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Nigeria, Kenya, Mexico, and Chile.
Transit time varies by destination and method. We give you a realistic window, not a best-case number. Once the unit is loaded, you receive the bill of lading and can track the vessel. For a Tank 300 or Haval H6, the shipping stage is where the landed cost becomes concrete: FOB price plus freight plus insurance plus destination charges plus duty. We provide the breakdown so you can calculate your final cost before the vehicle arrives.
Stage 7: After-sales
After the unit clears customs, our role is documentation support. If your broker needs a copy of the invoice, the bill of lading, or the certificate of origin, we resend it. If there is a discrepancy between the listing and the delivered unit, we want to know. We are an independent exporter, not affiliated with GWM, so we cannot provide manufacturer warranty service. What we can do is make sure the paperwork is complete and the vehicle is what we said it was.
For importers in Russia, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Nigeria, Kenya, Mexico, and Chile, the after-sales stage is mostly about closing the loop. Confirm the unit matches the listing, confirm the documents match the unit, and keep the records for your own customs file. If you are planning a repeat order, this is also where you tell us what worked and what did not. That feedback shapes the next quote.
What to Confirm Before You Commit
Before you commit to any GWM import, confirm four things: the reference FOB price, the real mileage, the registration date, and the export documents you will receive. Every listing on our site shows these fields. If a listing does not, ask. We would rather answer a question on WhatsApp than have you discover a gap at the port. Use the same discipline whether you are importing a single Tank 300 or a container of Cannon pickups. The process is the same; only the volume changes.
