In your own "subscription" autonomous EV when it quietly locks all doors and reroutes to the nearest facility.
You won't have noticed though; too distracted by the UberHD++ remaster of 2001: A Space Odyssey playing on the holographic windscreen.
- CatWChainsaw 4y agoNot sure why you're downvoted when even non-electric cars can be hacked and rerouted. The Grand Future also wants fully autonomous cars to not even have old-fashioned things like steering wheels and dashboards.
- q7xvh97o2pDhNrh 4y agoYou guys are scaring me. In all seriousness, though, I'm currently car-shopping, and I would gladly pay a massive premium for a car with the minimum-viable amount of electronic/connected nonsense. As far as I can tell, the only legally-required bit of electronic shenanigans is the backup cameras. I'd love a car that just had that, mechanical switches for everything else, and some USB-C/USB-A/aux ports where I can plug in my devices.
- seanmcdirmid 4y agoThe emissions logic is non trivial. Also, it’s just more expensive to build analog everything these days, and most consumers will think digital is shinier anyways.
- UIUC_06 4y agoActually, my car has the parallel-parking assist, and I've learned to use it to get a perfect parking job, first time every time! So I've got that going for me, which is nice.
- userbinator 4y agoIf you're looking for an EV in particular I don't think there's much if any "dumb" models, but otherwise if you're not looking for a new car either, then there's plenty on the used and even classic/vintage market.
- JohnFen 4y agoThis. Increasingly, this is true of ICE vehicles, too. It's why I've pretty much given up on the idea of having a new car at all.
