You could also be trapped inside while your vehicle is on fire. I want an EV, but the most of the men in my family have gone out via heart attack in our late 60s, I do not want to die trapped inside a car with lithium batteries while I’m slowly incinerated. I want working physical door handles.
Isn’t that only Tesla, though? Weird to generalize an entire industry based on the one that has the worst ratings, lowest reliability, and is run by a nazi.
Don’t look up how the Hyundai Ionic doesn’t illuminate the tail lights until the physical brakes engage, rather than regenerative braking. There is no mention of it in the NHTSA regulations. You could step on the brakes and someone can rear end you and that’s all fine. EVs in the US are so stupid. Just make an EV that’s affordable and doesn’t try to actively kill you.
I own an IONIQ 6 and can definitively confirm this is false. I’ve literally watched my break lights at night in the rear view mirror to confirm and understand how and when they work, and regenerative breaking absolutely lights up the break lights.
This isn’t true at all. I love Technology Connections, but Alec’s take on it is a bit misleading… They will illuminate under regen, but above a certain decel amount. This is intentional, because otherwise you’d have your indicators on constantly, so you have to set the threshold somewhere. Is it set maybe a little too high? There could be an argument for that, but saying they don’t illuminate unless the physical brakes engage is an outright falsehood.
What cars are these images from? I wasn’t under the impression that Nissan made a car that wasn’t heavily “connected”, though I do appreciate the physical knobs/buttons/etc. What is the other vehicle?

oh, too bad, I looked it up. you’re wrong. They even increased the sensitivity 3 years ago.
My apologies for being out of date.

Plenty of options on the market that aren’t Teslas.
So don’t buy a Tesla.
Exactly. I want an as basic as possible, unconnected car with physical buttons, knobs, and handles.
