Method
Counted from the live catalogue on 2026-10-21: only builders verified as the actual yard (own site or company register), only models in current production, every specification read from the builder's own published materials. A missing figure stays missing — where a builder publishes no price or battery capacity, nothing is estimated, which is exactly why the publication-rate percentages above can be trusted. Figures are refreshed in place on this permanent URL.
