It's the Kodak model. They might lower the price on the car itself, but if you want to use any of it, pay up.

it worked for Elon and his cars so why not.

EMC did this with their large disk arrays, just pay them more money and you can have more storage.

Unless you sign up for a three-year subscription

A subscription. For features in a car you already bought. And if you find a way to jailbreak the operating system and enable a feature, you void the warranty. Every car manufacturer trying to pull this crap (BMW is also on the list) deserves to be punished by consumers.

Cheaper to design and manufacture one type of Rear Axle than make two different types of Real Axles.

Imagine Dodge only giving you the Valet Key when you buy a Dodge Demon. LOL

When GM came out with Quadrasteer (4 wheel steering) pickups in 2003, the option cost $7000.

β€’ 107.8 kWh battery capacity
β€’ 11.25 hours (10 – 100%) charging time, AC Charging (240V)
β€’ 31 minutes (10 – 100%) charging time, DC fast charging (200kW)

Tell your local utility you want a 200 kW circuit (500 amp) installed. They’ll love you.

Of course, installing the 500 amp service is one thing. Having power available to charge the car is a whole ‘nother thing.

It doesn’t matter. In five years all automobiles will be β€œLease Only”.
