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

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

I can't find an article about it right now, but I could've sworn they tried to pull some subscription bullshit (other than "Bluelink" or "Evolve+," which are relatively legit) a while back, too.

At the very least I believe the only thing they're currently doing is Bluelink (remote find your car, start car over the Internet, etc). But maybe there's something they started in the last 6 months I haven't heard about.
