Remember, car companies can adjust their income based on models and this isn't fixed hence they can sell some models at break even and some models at a hefty profit. You don't have to look far--just look at how Ford can competitively price some vehicles compared to others.<br /><br />And remember, we are a small market. We cannot simply dictate features from a CBU plant and order, say, 100 units a month. Globally, we have to stick certain specs and given the closeness of the prices, there are some features which you cannot get on the NA that you can get on the XT. This actually makes the XT a good value crossover.Ulysses Anghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06863291552170192774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521223446245210239.post-79670080913078853082014-07-29T11:27:40.427+08:002014-07-29T11:27:40.427+08:00Here are the links for the reviews:

It's actually better than the previous model in terms of acceleration and even fuel economy. But I would say that the power is more "adequate".Ulysses Anghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06863291552170192774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521223446245210239.post-42720373259934053162014-07-29T10:40:15.249+08:002014-07-29T10:40:15.249+08:00Hi!
