Most notably the testing and continuing development part. Others seemed to just make the car and then let it sell with little changes as long as somebody was buying it. (208, DS3, i20). But again that's just how it looks to me. Might be wrong.
Sorry but doesn't proof anything about them being afraid of competition. Quite the opposite. It shows that when they do something they do it on 100%. Really the reason why they are not in WRC is not them being afraid of something.
