What does it mean グレード・オプション?

> グレード・オプション装備により記録されるデータ項目は異なります。な お、コンピューターは会話などの音声や車内の映像は記録しません。

My understanding: The data items recorded will vary depending on the grade and
optional equipment. Please note, the computer does not record any audio or in-
car video footage of the conversations.

My Issue: グレード・オプション. Is it grade and optional equipment or grade option
equipment? How do we translate the ・?




The "・"symbol is used as a space between two words. Japanese doesn't normally
use spaces, but the foreign words being used might confuse a Japanese reader,
so the space helps the reader realise that there are two separate words: grade
and option.

From the context, I assume that this car(?) comes in different grades, which
have different specifications. On top of that, a buyer can choose different
options within a grade. So the data recording will depend on both the grade
(of vehicle) and the optional equipment.
