Default No remote start in the B9?

Its quite a useful option in winter.

I wonder if the B9 comes with it

I'm not aware of any Audi's that are offered with a remote start option, a feature that came standard on my daughter's 2016 Honda Civic, lol.

Nope. In Europe you can use the Audi app to turn on the auxiliary heater but those aren't available in North America.

My last car had remote start and I used it a bunch the first winter I had it but I found in order for the car to warm up a noticeable amount I had to start the car at least 15 min before I was going to leave. Over the winter it really wasted a lot of gas. I found it is better to just start the car and drive. It warms up quick enough. Plus the seat heaters warm right away. As far as I know Audi doesn't offer remote start.
