That's a trap of average. When you have a guy buying Taycan for 100k EUR and guy buying Golf for 30k EUR then average car price is 65k EUR. Guy in Taycan does not care about average car and guy buying Golf can't afford this average priced car.

Well if you’re arguing that an average isn’t suitable and a median is more representative, I have good news for you - the article was actually conflating average and median:

> It’s just been revealed to me by Auto Trader that its “median new car RRP” figure for April 2024 was £41,738, rising to £42,340 in May – proving that already-high showroom prices continue to rise.

This means the model 3 is below the median new car price in the UK.
