The best Chinese cars to import into Chile
This is the answer we give when a buyer asks the question in one line: which Chinese cars are actually worth importing into Chile. Each pick below is quoted with its own landed-cost calculation for this market, from the duty band its engine falls into to the port where it clears.
The five we would put on the water
- 02
BYD
BYD Song Plus DM-i
A plug-in hybrid for buyers who pay for fuel at the pump: roughly 100 km of electric range on the commute and no range anxiety on the inter-city run.
5 · Front-wheel drive · 1,498 cc
- 03
BYD
BYD Atto 3
The EV that settled the price argument: a compact SUV with an LFP battery, dealer service in the Gulf, and a duty bill of 5% of CIF where electrics are favoured.

- 04
Geely
Geely Coolray
The small SUV that made Chinese cars normal in Algiers and Riyadh: 1.5 turbo, low duty band, and a cabin that still feels new at five years old.
5 · Front-wheel drive · 1,477 cc
- 05
HAVAL
HAVAL H6
A volume crossover with a long model run, so parts and diagnostics are already familiar across the Gulf and Africa.
5 · Front-wheel drive · 1,497 cc
Three of the five are current stock; the other two are sourced to order. Say which one and the year, and the FOB and CIF figures come back the same day.

What buyers ask before they choose
- best cars in chile for sale
- The market is Santiago, and the value sits in the compact SUV and the double cab. Chinese brands have moved into the new-car price band, which puts a new Tiggo 8 or CS75 Plus against a used Japanese SUV of the same money.
- best cars in chile
- For the city, a 1.5 to 2.0 litre SUV; for work, a double cab pickup. Chile assesses on the customs value and adds the IGV, and the San Antonio and Valparaíso entries are the two that decide the timeline.
- What is the vehicle age limit for importing a car into Chile?
- Used vehicles cannot be registered. Two workable angles remain: new vehicles, and using Zofri as a re-export warehouse serving Peru and Bolivia without clearing into Chile.
- Do Chinese left-hand-drive cars work in Chile?
- Chile drives on the right, so a left-hand-drive car is the correct vehicle type: the steering wheel is on the side the road requires. Every car we ship is left-hand drive. Used vehicles cannot be registered. Two workable angles remain: new vehicles, and using Zofri as a re-export warehouse serving Peru and Bolivia without clearing into Chile.
