Some car manufacturers have coherent names. For instance, consider BMW. For sedans/hatchbacks there's basically 1 through 8 (1 series, 2 series etc). Even numbered series tend to be high performance models and are usually coupes. Prefix "X" means it's an SUV. Prefix "I" means it's electric. The suffix "i" stands for petrol engine, "d" for diesel, "e" for plugin hybrids (?). The other numbers indicate the relative performance of the engine (ie., 530 > 525) "x-drive" means AWD. An "M" in there means high performance. If there's "competition" tacked on, there's even more performance, and "CS" means it's really badass. ---------- BMW is not the only one with a coherent naming though. Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volvo etc (just naming a few) also have similar naming strategies.
