What do these terms mean?
Ex-showroom price
The car's showroom price. Registration, number plate, vehicle tax, insurance and any dealer charges may be added to your bill.
Variant / trim
A version of the same car. Two versions can have different batteries, engines, safety equipment and prices. Match the version on your dealer's quote.
Ground clearance
The gap between the road and the lowest part of the car. For example, 180 mm is 18 cm. Passengers and luggage can reduce that gap.
Range
The claimed distance on one full charge. Hills, speed, weather, passengers and air conditioning can change it. WLTP, NEDC and CLTC are different test methods, so their numbers are not directly comparable.
