We always hear ppl saying CKD, SKD, CBU for cars... when come to Kia, Naza, Honda, Toyota, Hyndai, Merz, BMW...etc.
What do they mean? I totally have no idea until i come across an article telling me how to differentiate.
CKD - Completely Knocked Down
Means, all parts has been knocked down into pieces, imported into country, then only re-assemble back in local assembly factory.
SKD - Semi-Knocked Down
Means, some major/important parts were imported, like engine, caburator, chasis, starter...etc. Then will be assemble in local car assembly factory.
CBU - Completely Build Up
Means, fully imported whole car into country.
Now you have know already, i am sure it will help you to understand what the salesman is trying to sell you when you are planning to buy a car.
