It was even dumber kinda. They decided that it was easier not too have options for heated or non heated seats so they made all cars with heated to simplify production and if you bought the xar with heated seats thats it you got heated seats no subscription but if you didnt and changed your mind you had too pay as a subscription for them too activate the heating your car was already equipped with.

Or, hear me out on this, all cars with the hardware have that feature functional. Crazy, right?
This is what Subaru does. Buy an Outback or a Crosstrek and it comes with heated seats. Because it just does. They don’t make one that doesn’t.

It makes sense but why make it a subscription. Charge me a flat fee for an upgrade.
