You have to pay taxes for each mile you drive.
You are NOT allowed to modify your car due to uncrackable ecu and or can't change the interior because everything has sensors to detect change and if you do, you have to pay a large fee and second time the car is taken away from you forever while you STILL have to payout the car in FULL, and are prevented from driving for 1 year and prevented from owning a car from their brand that you modified.
You can't change your own tires. You have to pay to install tires that have unlockable downloadable features which you have to pay for to get tread for snow or rain etc because tires are advanced. The tires have a mile limit and once you pass it (usually 1/5th the life of the tire), your car can't go faster than like 20mph even though the tire is good, they force you to buy new ones for more profit.
The car comes extremely basic, all the options are rentals. You have to pay monthly for ac, radio, creature comforts, etc etc. Only you can drive your car because it constantly checks your eyes and or fingerprints to confirm it's you. It won't let anyone drive and you can't approve anyone because the car is tied in your name, and your also CONSTANTLY watched by cameras in the car ans they have FACE recognition tech and KNOW who's with you and where you are.
Cars are also limited in acceleration and now 0-60 is always 15 seconds, ONLY DEALERS CAN REPAIR CARS. No more local mechanics. Sports cars are banned and speeding once puts you in jail for life, otherwise cars basically drive themselves in cruise Control. Your not allowed to fix your own car otherwise you void your warranty and lose your car and have to pay for it. If you keep fixing cars your jailed for 30 years.
SO Yea, you get the gist of it. Let's just hope unfettered capitalism doesn't give us a dystopia lol

Somebody needs to buy you a dictionary so you can look up the word capitalism. What you just described in your not too unrealistic but definitely exaggerated story is unfettered Socialism. How you can get these two definitions so mixed up with today’s research tools is beyond me. I’m going to blame the school system you attended and perhaps your parents. Either way it can easily be corrected with a little unbiased research. Good luck and let me know if you need help.
