Car grade should always be checked if the grade is essential. Since the owners of the car and inspector are human being , some mistakes can occur.
Car grade in auction sheet says " ATHLETE V" it means car shall have Turbo engine 1JZ-GTE.
However, by checking the grade of the car in official site of Toyota, we can see the real car grade is just " ATHLETE" . It means car has non turbo engine 1JZ-FSE.
Another example:
Grade written on the car states TOURER V, that should be turbo engine. But the auction sheet grade and https://toyota.epcdata.ru/ say the grade is AVANTE and it is non turbo engine 1G-FE.
One more example:
Car grade on the auction sheet for above car is mentioned 30X, it means that battery is 30 kw.
Official Nissan web site define the different car grade 24X . Thus above car has only 24 kw battery.
The average price in above cases drastically changes (almost twice) because of grade.
