The final cost of shipping a car overseas is based on several factors. Some of the key factors affecting the cost of international auto transport include:

Vehicle weight, size and type - Larger and heavier vehicles like trucks or SUVs typically cost more to ship.

Delivery timeframe – Having a flexible delivery timeframe for your international car shipping may save you money, while expedited shipping would increase the cost.

Destination distance - The distance between the point of origin and the destination, as well as the popularity of the route affects the cost of international car shipping. Typically, the longer the shipping distance, the higher the cost. Moreover, some destinations may involve multiple “legs” to get the vehicles shipped.

Door to door vs. pickup at port - Door to door shipping typically costs more than pick up at port since it may require multiple modes of transportation (ship, truck), and more logistics.

Method of Transportation – In most cases RoRo shipping is less expensive than container shipping.
