Standard Equipment
We have summarised the typical standard equipment lists of cars so that you can compare cars side-by-side.
We show whether or not the equipment is provided as standard in the price of the car or is an optional extra.
Where the item is standard you will see a '•' in the table. Where the item isn't standard we display a '-' symbol.
Sometimes the item may only be available as part of a pack of options (e.g. bluetooth, satellite navigation and a head-up display) in which case we display the 'pack' price rather than individual option prices).
Standard equipment is displayed under the categories:
- Comfort (air conditioning/climate controltop speed, air suspension, etc)
- Safety (airbags, collision avoidance braking, etc)
- Security (alarm, immobiliser, etc)
- Entertainment (DVD player, bluetooth interface, etc)
- Exterior features (alloy wheels, electrically adjustable door mirrors, etc)
