How This List Works
For each car model we take its cheapest trim whose listed equipment includes premium audio, and sort by that trim's US price. "Vs entry trim" is how much more it costs than the model's cheapest trim. Trims without a published price are listed last.
The list covers the 96 car models from 9 brands in our US data (Abarth, Acura, Alfa Romeo, Alpine, Ariel, Aston Martin, Audi, Honda, Rolls-Royce), not every car on sale. Whether a feature is standard or a paid option can vary, so confirm with a dealer. Spotted a wrong feature? Tell us.
