As a car enthusiast, I've been following the Infiniti QX50 for quite some time. It was indeed an imported model initially, especially the first generation introduced from overseas, but later it underwent localization in China, with production primarily led by Dongfeng Nissan. Currently, the main version available in the domestic market is the locally produced one, which offers much better value for money at a significantly lower price due to the elimination of import tariffs. I've read comparison reviews, and the domestic version shows little difference in terms of power and configuration, with the 2.0T engine still delivering strong performance. However, it's important to distinguish between model years, as early imported units might still be found in the used car market. Localization has also improved after-sales services, such as faster parts supply and lower maintenance costs, which is a boon for budget-conscious buyers. Considering both price and reliability, if your budget allows, opting for a new domestic model is a smart choice, though older imported versions have their unique charm, like more refined designs. In short, just verify the manufacturing details before purchasing to avoid being misled.
