    Maybe EV’s shouldn’t be packed with all the bloated features and unnecessary software. We could eliminate internal combustion engine personal vehicles if the prices were more affordable for the end consumer and our governments took a harder stance on cutting emissions.

      I’d much rather a small, simple, electric sedan or hatchback with minimal features over the massive electric SUVs riddled with touch screens, wifi, self driving features, and corporate listening devices.

      The Chinese are making great, very affordable EVs that are $9k brand new. But they are illegal in the US because American billionaires can’t profit from them
