Match values into a group to create a new column

Is there a way I can pass a list of values from a column to group certain values? 

For instance, if I have the column Produtcs, and I want to create a new column based on the produtcs, so, "BMW","Honda","Ferrari"will be put as Car, and so on.

In another BI tool, i just put an IF statemant and pass the list of values to be put in the group. So once I get into my matrix visual, it will have Car, and below it, the cars' names, the prices, quantity...

 

Any hep will be more than welcome.

Thank you!

You can also use the Group feature in Power BI Desktop:

Hi, you can add calculated column:

 

Group = SWITCH(TRUE(),Table1[Product] IN {"Honda";"BMW";"Ferrari"},"Car","Other")
