These are new options Peggsy.

'Online Services' is still included FOC, but the 'Online Entertainment' (£325), as with 'Internet' (£95) is a cost option. However, I notice it doesn't actually give any details wrt what each of these options actually are!

Maybe 'eDrive Exterior Sound' (£85) is an external sound emitted to warn others e.g. pedestrians that there is a car coming(?)

As for 'Comfort Access' (£795), again it doesn't actually give details as to what this option actually provides, but if it is keyless entry, then my understanding was that this was already included!

...Hmmm, having just checked the following 'Standard Spec' brochure (attached below), it says "Keyless starting of engine ignition" (ref. page 3) is standard spec, but makes no mention of Keyless entry! So maybe Comfort Access is keyless entry and the online configurator is right as they're making it a cost option, I hope not (I hope it's standard spec.)
