Q:Is it cheaper to drive or ship my car?

Q:What is the cheapest way to ship a car internationally?
The cheapest way to ship a car internationally is generally Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), where cars drive onto and off the ship, costing around $900-$2,500+ depending on destination, as it avoids packaging and crane costs.
