Anonymous, 15 Nov 2023Kudos to Volvo. They made the right decision unlike BMW and Audi who chose the path of greed.Volvo is owned by Chinese, so you can expect much higher levels of flexibility and R&D speeds.
Still considering BMW, I don't personally like those cars, but man are they still more flexible that VW EV's, where even their latest ID.7 feels like a first gen. EV at best of the times.

Laundry cash cars should not exist.
Soon even most basic things like lights, fog lights and signal lights will be like premium and we will be charged to use them.

I would never buy any car that has micro transactions to activate features already fitted to the car like BWM tried to do with heated seats. I would also not buy any car without CarPlay/Auto.
