The future of automobiles is here! And it’s terrible! Volkswagen recently unveiled the ID.3 Pro and Pro S vehicles, which on the surface appear to be fairly normal EV hatchbacks. If one rolled down the street, you wouldn’t look at it twice.
But there’s a truly depressing twist hidden under the hood. In its default settings, the car is capable of a maximum of 201bhp (brake horsepower). However, if you choose to pay for the $20 a month (or a lump sum of $760) subscription service, you get the “privilege” of unlocking the car’s full power of 228bhp.
