Too Afraid to Ask

Add-ons are extra items you can buy for your car, like a better warranty or special paint. Dealers sometimes bundle them into the price and then reduce the base cost to keep the total the same.

Technical Definition

Optional features or services that a dealer can include in the vehicle’s price, such as extended warranties, paint protection, or upgraded accessories.
