Audi had been doing this for years and they even disable stuff if you sell your car to another private person. One of my friends bought a used Audi and everything was disabled so he installed a cracked version of the infotainment software and now the only thing that doesn't work is the fingerprint unlock.
A fingerprint unlock on a car? I've never heard of that, is it to unlock the doors?
I recently read about 2 or 3 cars doing the whole user your fingerprint to unlock doors and start the car thing. This is one of the reviews I read

It uses your fingerprint to start.
Probably used for user profiles for the seats and stuff and Aircon. Mercedes does it too
Don't know: there is a fingerprint reader on the handle of the car but it doesn't work
