That's my understanding also.

Of course, when it was remote started and running, when you opened the door, it stayed running. You had to push the start button again to activate everything for driving.

Nice thing about the Pro is if I stay in some place a little longer I can just restart the 4R with my phone. I also leave the rear window down about 6-8" just in case there is a malfunction.

So maybe he should've specified every 2020 TRD Pro and Limited with the JBL system have the remote start. When I was buying my ORP, I thought all 2020s had this feature. My salesman grabbed a few sets of keys from other 2020s on the lot. Their only TRD Pro started right up using the remote. Three Limiteds started up with the remote. No ORPs started using the same technique. Needless to say, I was disappointed that my ORP didn't have it.

Is there any explanation for why the engine turns OFF when you unlock/open the door?
Surely the ONLY reason you remote start is to... ready the cabin to start driving. So why turn off only to have to "immediately" turn back on? I assume there's some reasoning behind this... valid or not

I have it through the Toyota Connect App on my phone. 2020 Limited. It's a cute toy but no really useful in the Bay Area. Not too cold in the wither and occasionally hot in the summer.
But it is good for making sure you run it every week, during our shelter in place.

There is no real reason. Both of my Jeep Rubicons have remote start. You walk up to them, put hand on the door handle and it unlocks, open the door, and... walla!... the engine stays running. However, you have to press the start button again to bring the rest of the Jeep to life. Toyota could've done the same thing but they do dumb stuff when it comes to those nice little extras.

So far all of the Limiteds have remote starts and I have not seen a Pro with remote start. I think it might be how they order the Pro's.

I've been reading some of the literature, and it SOUNDS like remote start, from the key fob, will only work so long as Remote Connect service is active? I've got the 1yr trial, zero intention of paying for it... so I lose remote start functionality? What the hell?

It is my understanding from research online and talking to dealers only the T4R's with the premium sound system have factory remote start for the 2020 model year.

This is correct - remote start is only on the JBL equipped models.

Mine sucks with the remote. Works only if I'm standing two feet away. Might have a bad key fob. I will be testing my other fob today since I'm going to get my 10K service tomorrow.
The other thing that sucks is it turns off when you open the door. Never had any other vehicle do that.

Not true. I have a push button start, but no "premium sound system" or JBLs in mine, and I have remote start. I only use the key fob, not the app, and it seems to work at a good enough distance to not need an app anyway. I believe it can be added by the dealer on any of the trims with push button start.
