Chips in cars are decades old and are useful for things like managing fuel injection, increasing fuel efficiency. "Dumb" cars have chips too.

- drzaiusapelord 6y agoand for all we know, if cars were still made with carbs and solenoids and old fashion-y tech, that manufacturing might be impacted by a pandemic as well. I don't think there's anything fundamental about chips that are causing this delay. A lot of it has to with cancelling orders and manufacturers winding down and then restarting a major supply chain takes time, especially if demand shuts down fast and then starts up again faster than expected.
