    That won’t stop battery degradation.

      Yeah, it won’t.

      ICE engines also need oil changes, transmission fluid, headgaskets,belts.

      I agree that modern “it’ll spy on you” car software sucks ass. The actual battery and charging tech is way way better than 2018 though. No one has to stop for 45 minutes.

        Yea and I can do my own maintenance. That’s another factor that sucks about EV. You can’t even do any work yourself.
