What are the differences between the imported BMW X1 and the Brilliance X1?

[CassidyDella]

BMW X1 imported and domestically produced models share the same technology, but there may be differences in materials and craftsmanship. One is manufactured in Germany and imported to China as a complete vehicle. The other is assembled in China by Brilliance using mostly imported BMW parts, under BMW's supervision. The details are as follows: 1. Parts: Initially, domestically produced BMWs had 99.9% imported parts, even the cigarette lighter was imported from Germany, essentially moving parts from Germany to China for assembly. Any vehicle entering China through official channels undergoes rigorous testing and tuning to adapt to Chinese road conditions and fuel quality. 2. Fuel: Vehicles purchased abroad are not designed for the Chinese market, so they may not adapt well to Chinese fuel quality. BMW vehicles contain many electronic devices that are highly precise, which can lead to various issues. These problems often cannot be fully resolved within China.
