24,7% of share Miguel!
Yup, it’s the same car, very lightly re styled. Sold alongside the new one as a cheaper alternative. It’s on sale in most of South America i think. It was even on sale in Canada up to 2010.
Nissan has 6 cars in a top 10 = Domination;
VW Group has 8 cars in a top 10 = Manipulation.
Got it.
The Clasico looks a lot like the Jetta4/Bora. Doing the same job for VW in Mexico that the Polo Vivo is doing in South Africa?
Nissan still dominate the Mexican market.
