It’s normal in the automotive industry for brands to offer certain models for certain markets. For example, the famous Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution wasn’t offered for sale when new in the United States until 2003, which, by that time, meant the Lancer Evo was already in its eighth iteration. There are numerous others, as well, with models such as the Mitsubishi Proudia, Toyota Chaser, and Vauxhall VXR coming to mind, just to name a few.
