Picked up JFK using app whiled reserved Full Size. App offered the two vehicles above for an upgrade. Shouldn’t these two vehicles be complimentary upgrades for Preferred Plus?

Impala is a premium. Passat hasn't been reported in a while, but I thought it's now premium as well. The app is horrible for free upgrades. As a CHM, I can book premium, be assigned lux or specialty, but it still wants to charge me $45/day for an intermediate SUV or over $75 for another lux car.

Be careful with those Impalas, Avis and Budget still have some of the awful last-gen models floating around in their fleet. Chevy kept making them for company fleets so it may be a 2016/2017 but it's one of the awful old models. I've seen them at a couple locations this year.
