- 93po 3y agoIn the context of cars that would be using these chargers, I would assume the vast majority would be "modern" and have good backup cameras
- post-it 3y agoAre there any electric cars without backup cameras?
- SomewhatLikely 3y agoAs of 2018, all new cars in the U.S. have been required to have a backup camera.
- londons_explore 3y agoThe backup camera requirement really shaped the auto industry. It meant all models needed a screen too. And that in turn meant that many cars used the same screen for other kinds of UI, replacing buttons and dials, and requiring a computer, software teams, etc. Compare to Europe, where low end cars don't have a screen - and are also substantially cheaper.
