But most of that electronic complexity is just as present in ICEs as in EVs, no? It’s not like most of it is in the drivetrain. All those auxiliary systems.

- MisterTea 1y ago> All those auxiliary systems. That's the problem. I don't need or want any of that extra nonsense. You can't replace the radio in these contraptions. The only thing a car needs is: drive-line control, braking/ABS/ESP, steering, HVAC. Electronics wise dump the lame glued on tablet look and just give me a single up front dash display and a double DIN cutout in the dash. HVAC only needs knobs. I hope a Chinese auto maker comes out with an EV that dumps all of this stupidity and just gives us cars again.
- jcgl 1y agoRight, I agree. But the context was about the differences between ICE BEV. And they, afaik, have comparable bells and whistles.
- secabeen 1y agoBackup cameras (and the associated display in the dash) are a significant safety improvement. I wouldn't want to buy a car without one at this point, despite the increase in tech that it necessitates.
