Purchasing Your American Vehicle from Europe.

Do you wish to acquire an iconic US pickup but are unsure how to proceed? It is entirely possible to import an American vehicle to France through an automotive importer such as AM Importation.

The strong demand that has developed around the American market offers a wide range of used models in Europe.

The Most Imported American Car Brands in Europe.

The United States provides a great diversity of vehicles, including American icons such as the Ford Mustang, Dodge Challenger, Cadillac Escalade, and Chevrolet Camaro. In addition to these iconic models, the market also extends to renowned European brands such as BMW, Audi, Maserati, Ferrari, and many others. This variety results in an extremely dynamic market where the costs of European brands are often reduced compared to local prices in the United States.

The importation of each vehicle from the United States requires compliance with European standards, especially in terms of safety. This process once involved several steps, including validation by competent bodies such as DREAL and UTAC, following a technical inspection.

However, since September 1, 2023, French legislation has significantly simplified the homologation process for American vehicles. Now, when the vehicle receives European registration, a visit to UTAC is no longer necessary. This regulatory change has led to a significant reduction in costs and time associated with the homologation of imported vehicles, thus simplifying the importation of American cars into Europe.
