In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn't feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in it ?

Im quite sure car robbers do something like that since ages. :D

Charging for that is so criminal. My 2010 vehicle can do most those things already for no recurring fees

All of those things?

While there’s a bunch I am assuming you can’t look up the location of your car through an app or website, or adjust the climate controls remotely, or get alerts when the alarm is triggered.

There are some features in here that require some sort of connection, what I find criminal is that they remove the features we DO have on our old cars from the key fob and paywall them behind an app.

Curfew? Do you live in a warzone?

For if you let your child take the car out.

That also means the car gets a lot cheaper because of the recurring subscription model right? Right?

I wonder how they're planning on competing to Tesla like this. They basically give all these things for free in their app/car.

( Not to Tesla fanboy or anything ). But if you can pick between a car that gives you all this stuff compared to one that charges you monthly for it.....

Even though putting money in Elon's pocket is something I'd rather avoid
