  • Production and status

    Built 2018 to 2023 and listed among cars discontinued in 2023 (Wikipedia, 2026-10-28). Our model page lists it as discontinued and available on request (CRAVEUO model page, 2026-10-28)

  • Charging standard

    GB/T is the charging standard in China (AC and DC). Check your market's connector and adapter (Akyga, 2025-08-27). Check which charging inlet the specific car has before you plan a purchase.

  • Export status

    Export availability depends on the brand's authorised exporters — ask us to check before you plan a purchase. The model is discontinued in China, so any supply is checked per order. Pure electric cars need a Chinese export licence since 1 January 2026 (CnEVPost, 2025-09-26). Supply is confirmed per order; no delivery date is promised in advance.

How to buy the Hongqi E-HS3 from China

  1. Choose the version and colour.
  2. A licensed Chinese exporter sends you a written quote.
  3. Sign the contract; you pay only after signing.
  4. Inspect the car, or see it on a video call, before it ships.
  5. It ships by RoRo or container and is delivered to you (DAP); a local customs agent clears it.

In the EU or the UK? We only export to private buyers for their own use, not to dealers. A China-market car needs individual approval (IVA) in your country before it can be registered — cost and time vary by country; EU import duty is 10%, plus your country's VAT. If a model can't get approval, we tell you straight away.

About CRAVEUO EV Export. CRAVEUO EV Export helps buyers outside China buy Chinese electric cars. Cars are exported by licensed Chinese export companies named in the contract; nothing is paid before the contract is signed. Ask us on this page, on WhatsApp or by e-mail.

Hongqi E-HS3 buyer questions

Is the Hongqi E-HS3 still sold new in China?

No. Wikipedia lists the E-HS3 among cars discontinued in 2023, with production from 2018 to 2023 (Wikipedia, 2026-10-28). Our model page says it is available on request and suggests the current model or a registered used unit. Ask us what can be supplied for your country.

How much did the Hongqi E-HS3 cost in China?

Those are historical guide prices, not current ones, and not an export price. CRAVEUO EV Export gives a written quote per order.

What is the range of the Hongqi E-HS3?

The 2019 model has a 52.5 kWh battery and is listed at 344 to 407 km on the CLTC cycle (CarNewsChina database, 2026-10-28; Autohome, 2026-10-28). CLTC is a Chinese test cycle, so real-world range is usually lower, and battery condition matters on an older car.

Can I import the Hongqi E-HS3 into my country?

Check your country's registration rules first, including any age or used-car rules. Export availability depends on the brand's authorised exporters — ask us to check before you plan a purchase. The China-market car is left-hand drive. Send us your country.

Which charger does a China-spec Hongqi E-HS3 use?

China-market cars use GB/T sockets for charging. Many other markets use Type 2 (AC) and CCS2 (DC), so an adapter may be needed (Akyga, 2025-08-27). Compatibility varies by car and charger. Check local rules, and ask us which version you would receive.
