Cellular generations will last as long as most people will even keep their car. That’s not really a concern. My A4 has the 3G antennae replacement as a recall they’re doing for free. What a company has to pay for is planned on implementation. Bonus niche perks used to be a reason why you went with one company over another company. Now everything into a subscription because it’s free income.
I promise you that there are plenty of people in Chicago without the ability to preheat their car and they’re surviving just fine lol
