#EV drivers of the #fediverse I'm hoping you can help me out. Our family is hoping to be buying an EV in the next few months and have narrowed our options to 4 (based on paper specs, online reviews, and budget)

- Ford #MachE
- Volkswagen ID.4
- Toyota BZ
- Chevy Equinox EV

One of the things I noticed with at least two of them (the BZ and the Equinox) is that the phone app to allow you to precondition the car prior to departure requires a subscription. Do the other 2 (the MachE and the ID.4) also require a payed subscription or is it an included permanent feature?

Also I'd like to hear from owners about whether or not they would purchase their car again or if they wish they'd gone with a different one.

Thanks

@RantingCanuck I have a 2023 Mach-E Select AWD with 42K miles. I love the car and have had no issues. Pretty sure the app starts the car with no subscription.

If I needed a car right now I would likely buy an off lease Lucid Air. The range of my current car is 224 miles, the Lucid would be more like 400 miles.
