The Borgward BX7 is indeed a domestically produced car. As an automotive enthusiast, I'm quite interested in brand histories. Borgward was originally a German brand with a long history, but it went bankrupt due to poor management and was acquired by China's Beiqi Foton in 2015. Since then, the BX7 model has been manufactured and assembled at Beiqi Foton's factory in Jiangsu, China. The supply chain for parts has been localized, with components like the engine and body all made in China without relying on imports. This reminds me of similar cases, such as Geely's acquisition of Volvo, where the produced cars also became domestically made. Borgward retains some German design elements, but at its core, it's a product controlled by a Chinese enterprise. In terms of quality, the manufacturer strives to maintain high standards, offering stable driving performance at a more affordable price compared to purely German cars. So, buying it supports domestic industry with good value for money and reliable performance. In short, from production location to corporate ownership, the BX7 is truly a domestic car.
