Similar thing in the automotive world in Europe.

Toyota Aygo, Citroen C1 & Peugeot 107 are all built in the same factory set up as a joint venture between Toyota & PSA Peugeot / Citroen.

They are all using Toyota running gear, the only bit's PSA Peugeot / Citroen supply are the wing side repeaters & the seats.

The only difference's between the 3 different cars are the trim, badging & some external body panels / lights.

The Toyota Aygo comes with a 5 year warranty & holds its second hand value well as it's seen as a small premium city car from a manufacturer with a reputation for looking after it's customers.

The C1 & 107 only come with a 3 year warranty & don't hold there second hand value well as there both seen as French from companies that cant build a reliable car & with a dealer network that doesn't know its backside from its elbow.

Same basic car, same factory, same people putting all 3 versions together, the Toyota Aygo is always seen as the better choice on the second hand market out of the 3 different versions as it's the one with a Toyota badge on it.

Fact of the week
The use of "hello" as a telephone greeting is attributed to Thomas Edison. He is said to have suggested it as a simpler alternative to other greetings, such as "Do I get you?" or "Are you there?".
