BUYING BASICS

CONDUITE À GAUCHE OU À DROITE, ET COMMENT FONCTIONNENT LES COMMANDES OEM/ODM

2026-11-023 min read

Ce guide est affiché en anglais — une traduction dans votre langue est en cours. Le côté de conduite est une exigence légale, pas une préférence. Et ce qui change lorsque vous commandez sous votre propre marque.

This guide is shown in English — a translation for your language is on the way. Drive side is a legal requirement, not a preference. Plus what changes when you order under your own brand.

Drive Side Follows The Law, Not The Buyer

Right-hand-drive markets generally drive on the left and left-hand-drive markets on the right. Several African and Asian markets require right-hand drive and will not register the opposite configuration. Confirming this at quotation stage is the single cheapest thing you can do to protect an order.

Tell us the destination country, not just the port.

Drive side is built to order — it must be in the confirmed specification.

Changing drive side after the build is confirmed is not a small change.

Oem And Odm

OEM and ODM enquiries are welcome. OEM typically means the unit carries your branding and your specified configuration; ODM means we work to your design or tender specification. Send the specification or drawings and we will confirm feasibility, cost and lead time.

What We Need From You

Branding files and placement instructions.

Configuration or tender specification.

Quantity and delivery schedule.

Destination and any local compliance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which countries need right-hand drive?

It varies and rules change. Give us the destination and we will confirm the current requirement before quoting.

Is there a minimum quantity for OEM branding?

It depends on the branding method and the configuration. Tell us the quantity and we will confirm.

Can you build to a tender document?

Yes. Send the tender specification and we will confirm what is feasible and what needs a substitute.

Conclusion

Drive side and branding are cheap to get right at specification stage and very expensive to fix afterwards. Decide them first.

Want this applied to your order?

Send the model, quantity and destination port. Our sales team replies with configuration, price and lead time.
