Dang, you can get an older vw tdi and a tank of biodiesel for less than the price of their startup cost - and never pay a monthly fee. It seems this service works for some people and good for them. Kind of an interesting space Autonomy fills between daily/hourly car shares and a vehicle lease? Maybe the startup fee should more be considered “club membership” or possibly a buy-in to a cooperative business structure. This current business model just kind of leaves me feeling the customer is getting fleeced; (vehicle) ownership has many upsides including the opportunity to “add value to” a vehicle along with resale. Im additionally curious how this sub model works because of the ev infrastructure - sure you can always charge it at a public place (know people who do this) but for convenience a home charging setup seems like a reasonable investment. And if one is going to do that they may as well purchase the vehicle.
