But it's true? How does an automaker that doesn't engage in those tactics compete when the rest of the market does?

Like sugar-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free food, where the lack of something is sold as something positive.

I'd love to buy an ad-free, subscription-free, tracking-free, touchscreen-free car.

  • Those cars exist but don’t do well in the market. And only when sold by very little money and cheap parts.

    People demand connectivity, big screens and lots of software.
