So the manufacturers as a group therefore decided not to list pricing anymore. I'm sure they could have worked out a way but chose not to. If you go to Holden or Toyota you will find the same thing, no pricing.

Interesting that Hyundai have again stepped away with their "drive away" pricing
Try going to Toyota again.......
Or Mazda, BMW etc etc.
