The overall quality performance of the two companies is quite similar. However, FAW has higher manufacturing control standards due to its possession of the premium brand Audi, while SAIC has a slight advantage in sales volume, cost control, and maintenance expenses. Below are the differences between the two: Different establishment times: Shanghai Volkswagen was established in 1985, while FAW-Volkswagen was established in 1991. Different investment ratios: Shanghai Volkswagen is a 50-50 joint venture, while FAW-Volkswagen has FAW Group holding 60% of the shares. Different production models: The most obvious difference is that, apart from producing Volkswagen brand cars, FAW-Volkswagen also produces Audi brand cars due to its collaboration with Audi, while Shanghai Volkswagen produces Skoda brand cars. Different car models: For example, Shanghai Volkswagen produces the Passat, while FAW-Volkswagen produces the Magotan; Shanghai Volkswagen produces the Santana, while FAW-Volkswagen produces the Jetta, and so on.
