How do I compare cars in the campaign to cars on the market

[Pringles]

I want to know how my car cost is lower or higher than competitors. I don't see anywhere I can see the price of all competing cars is there a way i can see that

[Pringles]

btw how do I make a profitable car? I'm not sure how much I should be selling. I end up spending like 6,000,000$ per month on car production but I only make about 100,000$-300,000$ per month on selling the cars. (The month of release I actually got 598,000$ which is the most revenue I've gotten per month from car sales) Is there something i'm doing wrong?

Make sure you're selling your cars for at least 20% markup. If it is fancier / premium cars, then aim for at least 50% markup. Otherwise you sell a lot but make no money off of them.
You can compare sales prices of your competitors on the markets screen, that should have an average top3 competitor price shown in the tooltip of one of the main market modes (not sure which one it was).

I don't see any tool tip which compares the price of any other cars?? I don't know what you mean by main market mode. I'm on the markets page which has a bunch of numbers and colours.

Yeah, on that market screen, when you hover over one of the demographics, at the top it says something about average competitor price (for that demographic). I don't think that's visible in all market modes but in one of the main ones. See if you find it, that's the price your competitors are selling their cars for that demographic.

ah I see it's on the competitiveness tab thank you!!
