What are the differences between domestic and joint-venture cars?

[Clifford]

Domestic cars and joint-venture cars differ in terms of power, company attributes, configurations, etc. The specific differences are as follows: Power differences: Domestic car engines and transmissions have always been weak points, whether in terms of materials, workmanship, matching, or testing, they fall short of joint-venture car standards. The main manifestations are weak power, low horsepower, high fuel consumption, strong gear-shifting jerkiness, and uneven, discontinuous power delivery. Joint-venture cars often benefit from over half a century of accumulated experience, advanced technology, mature matching expertise, enabling them to achieve large displacement, low fuel consumption, strong power, and comfortable matching. Company attribute differences: Joint-venture car companies typically involve foreign manufacturers providing technology while Chinese manufacturers provide the market. Configuration differences: When comparing domestic and joint-venture cars of the same price and class, domestic cars tend to offer more abundant interior configurations. Currently, many entry-level joint-venture models don't come equipped with ESP, whereas in China, this has basically become standard equipment for domestic cars.
