Connect Plus Features - What's Lost After Subscription Lapses?
According to the Volvo XC40 docs (EDIT: removed hyperlink) see FAQ PDF at the bottom of the docs), Connect Plus includes Google Assistant among other features like live updates to Google Maps.
What features are included under Google Assistant? Climate control voice commands?
Beyond what is listed in the docs, I'm trying to determine what features will be lost if I allow a Connect Plus subscription to lapse.
From the FAQ #6 (emphasis mine)
>What features stop working if the car is not connected?
A: Without Connect Plus, the vehicle still supports built-in features such as some offline navigation, phone calls, and radio or locally stored media. However, the following features will be unavailable: real-time traffic and online navigation in Google Maps, Google Assistant, and Google Play and in-car app downloads
Edit: more FAQs
>5. Will the Volvo Cars app still work if I don’t have Connect Plus?
A: Yes. Core Volvo Cars app features—such as remote start and vehicle status—will continue to function normally without an active Connect Plus subscription.
