    I'm thinking about buying a 2020 or 2021 Kian Niro EV. When looking at things added to the 2021 model, I saw Remote Start and Level 2 Driving Assist listed. Can someone tell me what these are? Does the 2020 not have Remote Start? I'm not sure if by Remote Start they are talking about heating and cooling via the app or a button on the fob. Thanks!

    Thanks. Can you remote start it via the app?

    Only with a subscription, and not lowest level of subscription. I think it's about $15/month. When I say remote start it starts the climate control, and you can set the temp.

    Thanks for that info. That's unfortunate to hear. $15 per month for a car app is crazy.

    Agreed, it's really annoying.

    Especially since the app is a piece of junk
