Import Tips
• Submit OEM engineering specs confirming non-plug-in hybrid to avoid 8703.70 PHEV classification
• Track 'new' vehicle chain-of-custody docs from factory; first sale to end-user disqualifies as new
• Prepare for FMVSS bumper/airbag testing; common issue is European vs US spec mismatches
