One of the features mentioned is a "remote starter" that lets you start the engine from outside the vehicle by pressing a button on the key. I'm not sure why anyone would call this a "basic feature", or indeed why anyone would want it.

Remote start is a basic feature in cold climates like Canada, especially if you have young kids. It's hard enough to wrangle kids into the car, let alone when it's -40°C outside. Remote start allows the interior of the car to warm up beforehand.

  So without checking the vehicle is in a condition to start safely, you can just fire it up without looking? Cool, cool...

    You can even get aftermarket remote starters on manual cars. Though usually you have to sign a waiver.
