Make them more affordable and not riddled with spyware and maybe we can talk about it when my current car breaks down. Car makers used EVs as an excuse to make their surveillance even more pervasive and we’ve already seen leaks of cabin cameras and microphones.

Hate to break it to you but spyware is in all cars, regardless of powertrain.

Which is definitely a problem, and could be a reason to not buy newer vehicles, but is a silly reason to not buy EVs.

I was about to say, “not in my 2004 350Z”, but then I remembered that I upgraded the stereo to a unit that runs Android Auto.
