How to read the table

Seat count varies by trim — six-seat captain's chairs and a seven-seat bench can share one body. Check the seat column before assuming a layout.

What the group says

The flagship class inverted the old hierarchy: the Chinese cars are the expensive ones, and they compete on cabin technology rather than badge. The running-cost argument is secondary here.
