The whole line-up at a glance
Across every variant of each car, not only the ones picked above. “Cheapest with” rows give the lowest-priced variant that has the feature. Prices are ex-showroom as each maker publishes them, and the city they name can differ between makers (each car's page says which), so a price gap is a guide, not an exact difference. Mileage and range are the certified test figures the makers publish; real-world figures are usually lower.
