Last updated: July 2026 dataLarge-displacement vehicles above 3,000 cc — including luxury sedans, performance cars, motor homes, ambulances, and hearses — are classified here, with six 10-digit lines separating specialty vehicles (8703240110), motor homes (8703240130), and passenger vehicles by cylinder count and new/used status (8703240140 through 8703240190). South Korea leads US imports under this heading, followed by Canada, Japan, Germany, and the United Kingdom — a supplier mix that reflects both mainstream large-engine models and premium European marques.

Ambulances, hearses, and similar specialty vehicles with spark-ignition engines over 3,000 cc are captured under 8703240110, distinct from standard passenger cars in the same displacement range. Classification as an ambulance or hearse typically requires that the vehicle be purpose-built or permanently converted for that function — a standard van or SUV modified after importation would not retroactively qualify.
CBP looks primarily at whether the vehicle has been registered or titled in a foreign jurisdiction prior to importation. A vehicle driven only for pre-delivery inspection or dealer demonstration purposes may still be considered new, but any foreign registration creates a strong presumption of 'used' status. Importers should obtain a certificate of non-registration from the exporting country's motor vehicle authority when claiming new status.
