To me, the current subscription model seems like you are trading the "joy" of paying extra money for the reward of greater engine wear. Maybe the increased performance is worth it for some, but the economics doesn't make sense.
- bluGill 4y agoThat is why it can make sense. If you prefer the longer engine life, then the system will limit you so you get that. If you prefer the performance, then pay for it. The above assumes - probably incorrectly - that Mercedes will repair the car as part of this, and thus the increased cost mostly represents their costs in more repairs needed. If you have to pay for repairs, then it should be a one time fee.
