This is an interesting question. The Mercedes-Benz imported directly from Germany boasts top-notch quality and craftsmanship, after all, they've been making cars in Stuttgart for over a century, with impeccable attention to detail. Beijing Benz is a joint venture, manufactured at the production line in Beijing's Yizhuang. While it employs Mercedes-Benz technology and standards, some components are localized, making the price more affordable. Drivers can feel that the imported version has more refined chassis tuning, with a completely different vibration filtration when going over speed bumps. However, Beijing Benz models generally have a longer wheelbase, offering more rear-seat space, which is indeed family-friendly in China. In terms of maintenance, Beijing Benz has more 4S shops, and labor costs are cheaper.
