    I’m not sure what that has to do with one car being ice and the other electric though

      Exhaust fumes. Remote heating an ICE requires starting the engine, which is a dangerous thing to do unsupervised particularly when many cars are stored in garages attached to homes.

        While that’s true (you’d have to open the garage door with the rear facing out minimum) that’s not what we’re talking about in this corner of the thread. The person I’m replying to is bringing up subscription models for some reason? I’m asking what do subscription models have to do with whether a car is ice or ev?

          Probably because ICE cars can’t heat when scheduled because they can kill you while EV can heat on schedule.

          They brought up how the feature is a subscription to their displeasure but ICE app integration would likely also be a subscription.
