So far there’s subscriptions for cruise control, adaptive beams, various navigation options, apple/google integration and my favorite, dual-zone climate.

    I was considering an A3 for my next new car. Nope. Not anymore.

      I’m in my second Audi but it will be my last. This subscription shit should be boycotted.

        This subscription shit should be prohibited by law.

        The real problem here is that the FTC is failing to do its goddamn job.

            In the US we used to at least be able to reply on CA to pass laws to prevent a lot of this shit, which ended up benefitting most of the rest of the country. But they’ve been real tolerant/lazy too.
