Night drive in a 530e. Pressed the high beam assist button, but a message from the car essentially said "no, you need to buy the feature first on the ConnectedDrive store." BMW and Merc both keen to do this more in future, so this won't be the first time we'll see it... 💡💰

And yet people still "How can Apple possibly compete against the current manufacturers?" You compete by providing a better total experience (including much less nickel-and-diming).

All the people saying "actually this is a good feature" in the comments of the original post... Nice

I periodically have to pull the battery cables and ‘hard reboot’ my 2019 @subaru_usa Outback...

It's an option you can buy when you configure the car. If you don't the car cost less. If you change your mind later you add it with a one time unlock fee. Other brands tell you to bring the car in and do it with the service comp.

Forget a wrench. You need a debugger to figure out what’s wrong when your smart, modern car does something unexpected.

For just 2.99 a month, you too can see in dark conditions!
