My 2017 Seat Leon costs significantly less than a comparable BMW 1. I have a decent navigation system, voice controls, Android Auto and CarPlay, touch infotainment (not a fan), and lane assist, emergency break assist and several others. A friend of mine bought a BMW 1 which cost 12k more than my car (MSRP) and, excluding the gps navigation, has none of those features.

Those aren't innovations, those are almost standard in lots of vehicles.

Lol. I just looked at that car online. Comparing it to a bmw is laughable in every sense. Performance, not comparable. Safety rating, not comparable. Exterior and interior styling, laughably non existent in the Leon. Give me a break.
