Exotic car shipping uses enclosed trailers with hydraulic liftgates, soft tie-downs, and climate control to protect high-value vehicles in transit. Typical 2026 cost: $2.10–$4.20 per mile for standard exotics; ultra-rare hypercars start at $4.00 per mile and go up. Citadel offers single-car or multi-car enclosed with $1M+ cargo coverage and manufacturer-aware handling.

Single-car or multi-car enclosed
Two trailer options for exotic shipments. We recommend based on vehicle value, ground clearance, and timing constraints.
Single-car enclosed
Required for hypercars and ultra-rare exotics: Bugatti Chiron, Pagani Huayra, Koenigsegg Jesko, Lexus LFA, modified one-offs. Dedicated trailer, single chain of custody, full climate control.
- · Capacity: 1 vehicle
- · Premium: ~50–80% over multi-car
- · Transit time: typically faster (no other pickups/drops)
- · Best for: $500K+ vehicles, post-restoration, concours
Multi-car enclosed
The standard for most exotic shipments. 4–8 vehicles per trailer in individual stalls with soft tie-downs. More cost-efficient than single-car without sacrificing protection.
- · Capacity: 4–8 vehicles
- · Cost: $2.10–$4.20/mile typical exotic rates
- · Transit time: standard (3–9 days coast-to-coast)
- · Best for: most Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren, Porsche shipments
