==== China ==== In China, foreign manufacturers were required to form a joint venture with a local manufacturer to manufacture automobiles in the country.<ref>{{cite web|title=Impact of China Removal of Foreign Ownership Restrictions in Auto Sector |url= https://www.kwm.com/en/de/knowledge/insights/impact-of-china-removal-of-foreign-ownership-restrictions-in-auto-sector-20200414|access-date=8 December 2020 |website=kwm.com}}</ref> Prior to 2022, the Chinese government dictates that no more than two joint ventures are allowed for each foreign investor.<ref>{{cite web|title=China Foreign Investment: Expert Q&A β Spotlight on Automotive Manufacturing |url= https://www.nortonrosefulbright.com/en-id/knowledge/publications/100ea852/china-foreign-investment-expert-q-and-a-spotlight-on-automotive-manufacturing |access-date=8 December 2020 |website=nortonrosefulbright.com |language=en-ID}}</ref> Larger foreign manufacturers often set up two joint ventures to maximize the market reach, including Toyota ([[FAW Toyota]] and [[GAC Toyota]]), Ford (JMC-Ford and [[Changan Ford]]), Volkswagen ([[SAIC Volkswagen|SAIC-VW]] and [[FAW-Volkswagen|FAW-VW]]) and Honda ([[Dongfeng Honda]] and [[Guangqi Honda]]). To distribute the production and sales rights to each joint venture, manufacturers often resort to a similar strategy deployed in Japan: simply producing the exact model under two different names with minor changes to exterior bodywork. GAC Toyota has produced the Levin as a twin model to the FAW Toyota-built [[Toyota Corolla|Corolla]] and the Wildlander as the alternative to the [[Toyota RAV4|RAV4]]. Honda awarded several models to two joint ventures, which spawned the Breeze from the original [[Honda CR-V|CR-V]], the [[Honda Elysion|Elysion]] from the [[Honda Odyssey (international)|Odyssey]], the XR-V from the [[Honda HR-V|HR-V]], and others. {{Multiple image | align = center | direction = horizontal | image1 = FAW-Toyota Corolla Hybrid E210 of guangzhou auto show 2018 (cropped).jpg | caption1 = [[Toyota Corolla (E210)|FAW-Toyota Corolla]] | width1 = 225 | image2 = GAC Toyota Levin Hybrid E210 of guangzhou auto show 2018 (cropped).jpg | caption2 = [[Toyota Levin (E210)|GAC-Toyota Levin]] | width2 = 225 | image3 = | caption3 = | total_width = | alt1 = }} {{Multiple image | align = center | direction = horizontal | image1 = Honda Vezel 01 Auto China 2014-04-23.jpg | caption1 = [[Honda Vezel|GAC-Honda Vezel]] | width1 = 220 | image2 = Dongfeng Honda XR-V.JPG | caption2 = [[Honda XR-V|Dongfeng-Honda XR-V]] | width2 = 230 | image3 = | caption3 = | total_width = | alt1 = }} In other cases, foreign manufacturers may also rebadge a model developed by its partner, sometimes for exports to other markets. Examples include the second generation [[Chevrolet Captiva]] which is an export version of the [[Baojun 530]] made by [[SAIC-GM-Wuling]], or the [[Ford Territory (China)|Ford Territory]], a reworked version of the [[Yusheng S330]] developed by [[Jiangling Motors|Jiangling Motors (JMC)]]. {{Multiple image | align = center | direction = horizontal | image1 = JMC Yunsheng S330 facelift 8.14.18.jpg | caption1 = [[Yusheng S330|JMC Yusheng S330]] | width1 = 232 | image2 = Ford Territory CN 01 China 2019-04-04.jpg | caption2 = [[Ford Territory (China)|Ford Territory]] | width2 = 220 | image3 = | caption3 = | total_width = | alt1 = }}
