8703.23.01.20 - Station wagons under 160 cm in height

This HTS category, 8703.23.01.20, specifically classifies new station wagons and passenger vans equipped with spark-ignition internal combustion piston engines. The key differentiating factor for this subcategory is the engine's cylinder count, which must not exceed four cylinders. Furthermore, these vehicles are distinguished by their physical dimension, being under 160 cm in height. This classification is relevant for motor vehicles primarily designed for the transportation of people, excluding those for more than ten persons.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 8703.23.01.30 "Other," is crucial. While both fall under vehicles with spark-ignition engines between 1,500 cc and 3,000 cc cylinder capacity, and are new, this node focuses on a specific engine configuration (not more than 4 cylinders) and a particular body style with a height restriction. The "Other" category would encompass new station wagons and passenger vans that do not meet the specific engine cylinder count or height criteria outlined here.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subdivisions under this specific code. Therefore, classification within 8703.23.01.20 relies entirely on the fulfillment of all preceding criteria: the vehicle being a new station wagon or passenger van, powered by a spark-ignition internal combustion piston engine with a cylinder capacity exceeding 1,500 cc but not exceeding 3,000 cc, having an engine with no more than 4 cylinders, and measuring under 160 cm in height.
