At least public transit is an ongoing service. I'm far less opposed to subscriptions when I'm actually being provided with something for them.
Car manufacturers trying to charge subscriptions for features in the car you own feels like racketeering. They're not providing an ongoing service, they're asking me to keep paying them to not remove a feature.
