What are the differences between domestically produced Mercedes-Benz and imported Mercedes-Benz?
1 Answers
Domestically produced Mercedes-Benz and imported Mercedes-Benz differ in terms of price, configuration, and dimensions. Here is a detailed introduction to the differences between domestically produced Mercedes-Benz and imported Mercedes-Benz: 1. Price: Imported models are subject to tariffs, value-added taxes, and various other taxes, so their prices are generally higher than domestically produced models. 2. Configuration: Many components of domestically produced Mercedes-Benz are manufactured by domestic OEMs. For example, the wheel hubs are produced by Zhejiang Jinfei Machinery Group. Although the sources of these parts are different and there may be no obvious visual differences, there is a noticeable difference in quality during actual use. To some extent, China's specialization level and technical expertise still lag behind those of foreign countries. 3. Maintenance: Maintenance for imported cars is more expensive. According to the "Auto Parts Price Ratio Research Report" released by the China Insurance Association and the China Automobile Maintenance Industry Association, the parts-to-price ratio for the Beijing Mercedes-Benz C-Class is 670%, while the imported C-Class can reach as high as 1200%.
