8703.80.00.45 - Used

This HTS subcategory, 8703.80.00.45, specifically classifies used motor cars and other motor vehicles designed primarily for transporting persons, which are propelled solely by electric motors and have an EPA-rated range not exceeding 250 miles. These vehicles must be in a used condition, meaning they have been previously owned and operated.

The distinction between this category and its sibling, 8703.80.00.20, lies solely in the condition of the vehicle. While both cover electric vehicles with a limited range, 8703.80.00.20 pertains to new vehicles, whereas this category exclusively applies to those that have been previously used. The technical specifications regarding electric propulsion and range remain the same for both.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification into this code is definitive once the criteria of being a used, electric-only propelled passenger vehicle with an EPA-rated range not exceeding 250 miles are met. This level of detail ensures precise identification for customs purposes, reflecting the regulatory and commercial nuances associated with the import and export of such vehicles.
