And yet there it is, along with basically every other "luxury" feature western companies save for high end models... all for the price of a base model SUV here.

Those aren't luxury car features (minus the fridge), those are camper van features lol

The point is that what western car companies consider "luxury" features they charge extra for, like heated seats and that sort of thing, are basically standard there. So the luxury features they include to separate these models from the pack are these more niche things.
