Their website provides good enough information I believe:

- They only mention production in Germany. Their "Why Tuxedo" page[1] does seem to imply that they are building most of it themselves.

- They mention TuxedoOS for the same reason System76 mentions Pop_OS!: because they made it. I would expect it to work with any one of the OS included in their WebFAI[2] pretty well[3], which by the way I believe is actually sent with the laptop.

- Their FAQ might shed some light here[4] depending on where you live. It's pretty much the same with any brand I know; maybe you have had a different experience?

AFAIK they only sell rebadged Clevo products. You should be able to get any of their laptops on https://clevo-computer.com/en/laptops-configurator/ just without the badge.

I find it misleading that they do not mention it, then. Something like "Our Clevo-based laptops are assembled by us [...]" would suffice. Laptops with Linux[1] does it, why not them?

But are the assembled by them? I mean they install memory, storage and print the logo but I doubt it's much more than that. IIRC System 76 is the same
