Depends on the manufacturer. A lot of American and European “smart” cars work fine without an internet connection. You need to use a key fob, and apps cloud maps or streaming apps obviously won’t work, but the basic driving, climate, and media stuff should work.

A lot of American and European cars actually kill your cloud service access if you don’t keep paying a subscription fee.
