Euro Auto cũng là nhà nhập khẩu mà, dù nhập chính thức hay không chính thức thì cách làm ăn cũng khác, thành ra khó so sánh với một công ty sản xuất trong nước như Toyota Việt Nam.
Nói chung chuyện bảo hành hàng nhập khẩu thì mỗi anh đều có một kiểu khác nhau, nhưng mục đích chung quy là không đá lấn sân nhau gây tổn thương gà cùng một mẹ, và còn có mục đích hổ trợ cho các gà con mới ra ràng nữa
Canada là một nước sát nách với Mỹ, hai thị truờng với hai tầm vóc, sức mua, giá cả khác nhau. Có một vấn đề đau đầu là giá xe bên Mỹ luôn rẻ hơn Canada từ 10% và có khi lên đến 30% tùy lọai xe và thời điểm. Vậy thì chính phủ và các nhà sản xuất nội địa phải đối mặt thế nào đây?
