Maybe not literally -- I'd take power windows and AC, that's it -- but I agree with your point. Really, what dumbfuck decided that, because they're both "electronics", an electric car needs to be an iPad on wheels? Or that this concept is linked in some way with ADAS systems? I listen to VW execs talking about how "EVs are software". Are they? Says who? It's a fucking battery, a motor, a big-ass Buck/boost converter, and, in Tesla's case -- this element of complexity is legitimately good -- a heat pump. To exaggerate only slightly, I see no reason why any low-voltage ICs more complicated than an LM555 should be needed. Chip shortage? We need high-performance MOSFETS, yeah, but the controller could come from a technology node circa 1979. And then the insides are all "luxury". Everything comes with leather seats (which crack) and fancy interiors. No!! There is nothing wrong with the inside of a Camry. Give me that. I thought Tesla started with a Lotus. Talk about bare-bones. What the hell happened?
