How this list works
Entries need at least two independent sources; an official manufacturer announcement earns the "date confirmed" badge. Expected prices are what credible coverage reports — not our estimates, and not promises. The list is re-verified every Friday alongside our discount tracker, and launched cars get full price, variant and on-road coverage the day prices are published — see the changelog for the record.
