It’s practically like an Audi, they might say, what with its LED taillights, LED running lights, LED map lights, and even non-LED-lit things such as heated and ventilated seats, a 405-watt sound system, a panoramic sunroof, leather upholstery, automatic emergency braking, and a turbocharged four-cylinder engine with a dual-clutch automatic
