The Glovis Nova, a newly constructed roll-on, roll-off vessel, has set a domestic record by transporting 7,738 electric vehicles from Shanghai to Europe.
On its maiden voyage, the Malta-flagged Glovis Nova, built by Guangzhou Shipyard International, loaded a full cargo of Tesla Model 3 and Model Y cars at Shanghai’s South Port Terminal. This shipment, which is the largest number of vehicles ever shipped from a Chinese port in a single voyage, is destined for Zeebrugge, Belgium, before distribution across European markets.
