Recently, in the KD (knocked-down export for overseas assembly) workshop of SAIC-GM-Wuling's Baojun Base, car shells and boxes of components were being assembled and shipped. Besides complete vehicle export, KD component export is a common form of automobile export. This not only saves logistics costs but also enjoys customs policy benefits, driving industrial development and employment in the destination country, and gaining policy support from the destination country.

It is understood that the new energy vehicles from this base are mainly shipped overseas from Guangzhou Port and Qinzhou Port, with the proportion of shipments from Qinzhou Port continuously rising. At Liudong Logistics Center, 5 kilometers away from Baojun Base, KD components are being assembled into containers and then transported to Qinzhou Port by rail. Since the beginning of this year, the export volume of new energy vehicles in Liuzhou has continued to grow. According to Liu Qiang, manager of the KD workshop, SAIC-GM-Wuling exported 5,805 new energy vehicles to more than 20 countries including India, Indonesia, and Egypt in January and February, with a cargo value of about 250 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 63%.
