LHZ Auto Turkey Branch Operations Center — China, Japan and South Korea Inventory Vehicles Eurasian Dual-Corridor Distribution Platform

LHZ Auto Turkey Branch Operations Center is the second Turkey site established by LHZ Auto in the Middle East region, forming dual-site synergy with the Turkey Operations Center at www.lhzauto.tr. Turkey spans Europe and Asia, is the intersection of the Middle East, Europe and the Caucasus, and a major global automotive consumption and re-export market. LHZ Auto Turkey Branch Operations Center integrates inventory vehicle resources from China, Japan and South Korea, providing batch supply and delivery services for the Turkish market and surrounding re-export markets.

Three-Country Vehicle Source Positioning

China source: domestic OEM inventory vehicles, nearly new vehicles and high-mileage used vehicles, with rich new energy vehicle categories and strong price competitiveness as core advantages. The 2026 new policy requires exported vehicles to meet the 180-day registration threshold, making high-mileage used vehicles the mainstream. The Turkish market has demand for both high cost-performance fuel vehicles and new energy vehicles, and Chinese inventory vehicles have clear advantages in price and categories.

Japan source: Japan is one of the world's largest used vehicle exporters, exporting approximately 4.5 million used vehicles in 2025. Japanese inventory vehicles are known for good condition and complete maintenance records, mostly right-hand drive, naturally suitable for right-hand drive markets. Turkey is a left-hand drive market, but Japanese left-hand drive sources and some convertible models still have certain space, and brands such as Toyota, Honda and Nissan have long-term user bases in Turkey.

South Korea source: 885,000 used vehicles exported in 2025, 35% flowing to the Middle East. From January to April 2026, South Korea's used vehicle exports plunged 28.7%, and exports to the UAE dropped sharply by 93.6%. South Korean inventory vehicles are looking for alternative markets outside the Middle East, and Turkey, as a bridge between the Middle East and Europe, is one potential direction.

Dual-Site Synergy: Turkey Operations Center plus Turkey Branch Operations Center

The Turkey Operations Center at www.lhzauto.tr focuses on the Turkish local market and surrounding re-export demand, while the Turkey Branch Operations Center at www.lhzauto.com.tr focuses on Eurasian dual-corridor distribution and regional customer service.

Customers can flexibly choose the Turkey Operations Center or the Turkey Branch Operations Center for procurement and delivery based on destination country, vehicle model, transit time and cost structure.

Delivery Corridor: Khorgos via Central Asia to Turkey in 12 to 18 Days

The Turkey dedicated line departs via Khorgos Port, crossing Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan, entering Turkey via Iran, with a total transit time of 12 to 18 days. The southern alternative route departs via Kashgar Khunjerab Port, going south via the China-Pakistan Friendship Highway into western Pakistan, then entering Iran, then Turkey, with a total transit time of 18 to 22 days, allowing flexible switching when the northern line is blocked. TIR vehicles go all the way without transloading. The Turkey Branch Operations Center can also serve the Caucasus markets of Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia, as well as some Eastern European re-export demand.

Turkey Market Policy Opportunities

Turkey implements relatively high tariff protection on imported vehicles, but in recent years it has gradually adjusted policies in the new energy and hybrid vehicle sectors. Turkey's domestic brand TOGG continues to ramp up, while Chinese brands are accelerating penetration in the Turkish market, forming a certain rebadging and local assembly network. As a Eurasian hub, Turkey has the natural advantage of re-exporting to the Middle East, the Caucasus and Eastern Europe. LHZ Auto Turkey Branch Operations Center can combine destination country policies to provide customers with flexible solutions for whole vehicle export, re-export trade and local delivery.

Dual-Sector Synergy: LHZ Auto Sales plus LHZ TIR Trucking Delivery
