Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Delhi to Milan

The cheapest way to ship a car is typically open transport (an open carrier truck), as it's the most common and moves multiple cars at once, saving costs over enclosed shipping. To get the best rates, book in advance, be flexible with dates, compare multiple quotes from different brokers, choose terminal-to-terminal, and ship with a near-empty gas tank.

For short distances (under 300 miles), driving yourself is usually cheaper since you avoid booking a carrier. For medium to long distances (over 500–1,000 miles), shipping often becomes the more economical option once you factor in gas, lodging, food, maintenance, and time off work.

The average starting cost for shipping a car to Europe is around $850 per car. This price is for ocean freight only in a shared container and does not include destination fees or duties and taxes.
