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

Headline is enough for me to never consider purchasing an Audi.

Toyota is out. Mercedes is out. Audi is out. Who else?

Mazda is still good I think.

But they're kinda expensive and they gatekeep features to their higher tiers, that other manufacturers keep to their lower ones.

Hyundai perhaps, but they've also had other issues.

Yeah but the only thing Mazda charges a subscription for is the extra unnecessary bullshit that is coordinated through their servers. Thats a fair value proposition, even though I’d never pay for it. Heated seats, radar cruise control, shit like that still just comes with the car.
