Like animal fries at In-n-Out, the $35k is not shown on the website. You have to call and ask for it specifically.
Or if you prefer you can order the $39.5k one and call up service and get them to change the settings, and then they'll send you a refund of $4,500.
Does this all sound strange? Sure, but I guess they have their reasons for doing it, which seem to be mainly to keep the menu simple and steer people toward the best value, because the $39.5k car is a better value than the $35k car.
- dannyw 8y agoEverything extra that you get with $39.5k is software unlocks (autopilot, navigation, heated seats software). So the extra $4.5k is pure margin.
- humbleMouse 8y agoSo to clarify, you dont get heated seats unless you pay 4.5k for a software upgrade?
- jsight 8y agoThat was the initial claim. It sounds like they might not actually be turning those off, though.
- humbleMouse 8y agoSeems pretty ridiculous to claim software is needed for heated seats. Usually a hardware setup with a simple switch.
- natch 8y agoThe heated seats can be controlled by an iPhone app and various other means. Pretty sure this involves software. I mean sure software is not needed but then you would be in a different car.
- humbleMouse 8y agoIf you need software to control the heated seats in your car, I don't want that car.
