Leasing a new vehicle

[kalakoa]

Note that all new vehicles have built-in telematics, which data is owned by the finance company to be used as they see fit. In theory, this would include violating the warranty coverage or other lease terms if you drive somewhere not approved by the owner, such as an unpaved road.

These issues are currently theoretical, but it's safe to assume that technology will evolve faster than regulations, just a matter of time.
