Why buyers source used cars in Korea
- Left-hand drive. Korean cars are built for right-side traffic, which suits most markets in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, the CIS and the Americas.
- Documented history. Korean vehicles are registered in a national system, and auction cars come with condition sheets, so mileage and accident history can be checked before purchase.
- Wide choice. Hyundai, Kia, Genesis and KG Mobility (formerly SsangYong) alongside imported brands such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi and Lexus.
- Short, frequent sailings. Incheon and other Korean ports have regular RoRo and container services to most regions.
Where the cars come from
Most export stock comes from Korea's large wholesale auctions — for example Hyundai Glovis, Lotte Auto Auction and K Car — and from dealer networks. We search these channels against your specification: model, year, mileage, trim, colour and budget.
