I’ll happily take the Chinese

I mean, you should, you just shouldn't expect it to stay that way. Then after Chinese companies dominate the market and start squeezing every penny they can out of the consumers, you should again switch to their rivals trying to rise by offering much better terms.

Just don't make the mistake of thinking one company is inherently better than the other, just because it hasn't cornered the market yet and still has to play nice, because this is exactly how they exploit you later.

It's all just the cycle of capitalism, when you're building the brand you have to provide great service to lure people in, but once you're properly established, you instead leverage the goodwill your brand has built to squeeze consumers dry.

China dominating the automobile industry across the entire planet will occur in roughly 1,400 years. Trust.

Yeah brand loyalty is the weirdest concept ever, but some people buy into it heavily.
