I thnk that's the problem...we all don't think like that.

I hear Flagship, i think "top line sedan"

If you say Saturn Flagship....I think "Aura"

If you say Dodge Flagship, i think Charger

If you say Hyundai Flagship, i think Azera

If you say Volvo Flagship, I think S80

Every company has a flagship...Not every company has a Q-ship.

Lexus' Flagship is the LSwhatever, Mercedes is the S-class, BMW has the 7 series, Audi the A8, Honda the Accord, Toyota the Avalon, etc.


The Flagship is the car that sells the least amount of units, unless it's a bargain basement brand. A Low line marque that has trash cars except the top line model.

The Nissan Maxima doesn't sell big units, but it's the flagship of nissan.
