I know the Accord PHEV can connect to a smartphone and also that Honda says they do some telemetry to monitor performance of the car remotely. But I'm confused about how connection is made to the car when your smartphone is removed. For example, if you want to pre-condition the cabin with the smartphone app, how is the connection made to the car? Does Honda provide the network connection? Or so you pay for a connection plan (like the OnStar plans?)
Oh, and can the HondaLinkEV app unlock the doors?
