iQ Subscriptions

Unlock your car's smart potential

How do iQ Subscriptions work?

iQ Subscriptions are one of the most important factors of the iQ, giving you more of an option choosing which features are crucial to you instead of one fixed plan.

In the initial set up of your iQ, you’ll be offered one of the three subscription plans to choose from, Solo, Protect and Protect Plus. As a first time iQ buyer, you’ll be given 1 month free for a plan of your choice, but better yet you’ll have the opportunity to change your subscription at any time.

Once you have chosen your subscription plan and finished your iQ setup, your iQ will be ready to go with all the features you have received from your subscription choice.
