Is the Hyundai ix35 a domestic car or a joint venture car?
2 Answers
Hyundai ix35 is a domestically produced car under a joint venture brand. The Hyundai ix35 is a compact SUV under the Hyundai brand, with dimensions of 4435mm in length, 1850mm in width, and 1680mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2640mm. The Hyundai ix35 is equipped with two engines: a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine and a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine. The front suspension of the Hyundai ix35 uses a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension uses a multi-link independent suspension, with a front-wheel-drive layout. The rear of the ix35 is relatively solid and compact, with a small-sized rear windshield and a wide rear bumper reducing its visual center of gravity.
The Hyundai ix35 is actually a joint venture vehicle, primarily manufactured by Beijing Hyundai, a company jointly established by South Korea's Hyundai Motor and Chinese enterprises. The advantage of joint venture cars is that they combine international advanced technology with local manufacturing benefits. I've driven a friend's ix35 and found it quite reliable in terms of power and handling, unlike some purely domestic cars that tend to have minor issues. If you're considering an SUV, this joint venture model offers better after-sales service and durability at an affordable price, making it worth a try.
