What is the difference between a service station and a 4S store?
1 Answers
The differences between a service station and a 4S store are as follows: 1. Business model: A 4S store is a car franchise model centered around the 'four-in-one' concept, including vehicle sales, spare parts, after-sales service, and information feedback. Therefore, it includes the after-sales service station. The after-sales service station is an officially authorized repair point by the manufacturer. 2. Authorization rights: The 4S store operates under a franchise model, while the service station is a repair shop individually operated that services various car models. Nominally, the parts used by the after-sales service station are all original manufacturer parts, and the labor and parts costs are much higher than those of a repair shop. Generally, service stations are brand agents.
