This may be a more accurate analogy... "The Porsche you rented at $200/mo now only allows you a maximum of 100km of travel. You will be automatically charged extra when you go over that."

A whopping 100km per month for the low price of $199.99!*

* with a quota of 138 meters per hour, overage charges may apply

more like 100m

Yeah, if I go to a petrol station with 50€, but only get a tenth of the amount of petrol I got last week, I may think that the price has in fact changed.

On top of being worth less, the subscriber discounts are gone.

The old plans were $0.033/request for Pro, $0.026/request for Pro+ and $0.04/request for pay-as-you-go. That discount is now gone. They even still advertise "5x the number of requests" for Pro+ over Pro.

It's more like saying, "and you may now only use the Porsche for 5 minutes out of every day."

Full brake on the autobahn if you hit your 5min limit

More like, the rising gas prices aren’t a problem, I only ever fill up for $40

Having rented cars a lot, this is actually quite common.

What country, I haven't seen anything but unlimited miles for over a decade.

I referred to the swapping of cars to a far inferior model than you paid for.

However I do also pay for milage (KM), and extending the rental period does often* NOT extend the milage range. Eg 1 month=1000 KM, 2 months=1000 KM, so you need to split the rental periods yourself and do all that hassle, or pay extra.

(*May of course vary depending on the rental company)

This being in Brazil.

It’s technically true that the plan prices haven’t changed, it’s just the value you get from those plans has plummeted. It’s classic deceptive sales language.

"Your monthly fee isn't changing but it now only covers about 3 days of driving."

More like, The Porsche you had for a month you'll now have for 5 min only.

They are now charging per gallon instead of a flat rate per trip
