IME the overall quality of pretty anything is falling, not just cars, the race toward cost-cutting have reached the point of no-return in general assembly output quality.
New stuff, not EV in particular, have bigger problems in mean just because they are sold as production ready while are just beta quality prototypes.
For cars, not EVs in particular, the issue is in target mismatch: cars now are pushed to be services, rolling infotainment stuff, while people actually tend to need and desire vehicles so less crappy crapware, less surveillance capitalism stuff, less useless interfaces and more effective tools. As a result the end product is bad. It's the mix of some managers and engineers and customers deeply divergent views.
