    I’m sure as an investor they will do well. Although I would be far more interested in their fleet vehicles than the R2.

    As a consumer I wouldn’t go near anything that costs $30k to fix a fender bender and intentionally excludes phone integration software like Android Auto to drive subscription fees.

      That last point all the way.

      No Car Play or Andriod Auto? Want to use a native app (like Apple Music) on the infotainment? That’s a monthly subscription.

      No thanks.
