Differences Between Domestic and Joint Venture Cars?

[VonAbigail]

Differences between domestic and joint venture cars: 1. Different engines: Domestic cars use self-developed engines; joint venture cars use imported engines. The engine and transmission together form the vehicle's powertrain system. Therefore, the importance of the engine determines a car's overall grade. Compared to joint venture cars, domestic cars' engine technology still lags behind, with certain issues such as oil leaks and abnormal noises. 2. Different transmissions: Domestic cars usually adopt 4AT or 5AT transmissions; joint venture cars use 8AT transmissions. The most common complaints about domestic cars concern engines and transmissions. Transmission quality significantly affects driving smoothness and handling. The matching between domestic cars' engines and transmissions is not ideal, often resulting in jerky gear shifts during driving.
