Forget Netflix, Volkswagen locks horsepower behind paid subscription

"As the car is registered at 228bhp from the factory, owners won’t need to inform their insurance company, either way."

So does this imply that if insurance companies charge higher rates for higher hp, that non subscribers incur higher costs for a feature that they don't get the benefit of?

I recently bought a Honda, and yesterday they emailed me a survey focused on what subscription services I'd find useful at various price points.

Unfortunately the survey gave me no opportunity to explain how much the basic concept of them continuing to be up my business post-purchase pisses me off.

Guess I won't be getting a 2all when it comes out after all.
