    It can be done in other countries but not here in the UK, as it’s not legal due to the security implications of having your car running, insurance etc.

    A thorough shame, remote start is great ? Starting to think that the government doesn’t like car drivers ?

    If you have off road parking it maybe allowed if the car is locked but, it’s a grey area – will your insurance company actually pay up..

    The Association of British Insurers  don’t comment on the use of such technology, as individual insurers will assess each customer and vehicle on a case-by-case basis.

    In most cases it will be subscription based and I think the option is there on some high end ICE cars. EV’s and some PHEV’s have it, but it works as above.
