## Scope
The hero is a concept animation, not a live connection. Its vehicle, images and $58,200 retail estimate are illustrative and are not an offer. The companion lot view is an extension in the existing vAuto non-production MCP. Its image was AI-edited to remove dealer identity. Film imagery is AI-generated. No access credentials or live customer records are provided here.
