This isn't true. Car is available with both Summer (Michelin) and All-Season (Bridgestone) tire specs out of the plant. The USA took both options and with dealer trading, you'll see different tires showing up in various regions.
Canada took only summer tires, so our units are all Michelin.
It has nothing to do with "cost" at the time of building the car.
