Currently EFI partitions are on the order of 300-500 MB for common installs, that'd allow you to store millions of PNG-compressed QR codes. Or even better, a small library which'd allow bootloader to generate it on the fly.

Do you get the 95% number from the dashboard or from actual mileage that you’re able to drive? In my experience those two metrics can be very different, e.g. a vehicle with reported battery health of 80% getting just half of original range.

ZOTAC does these - there are ZBOX Magnus with laptop-grade RTX 4000 series GPUs in 2-3 liter chassis. However their performance and acoustics are rather.. compromised, compared to a proper SFF desktop (which can be built in ~3x the volume)
