Most of all almost everything I have to interact with feels like it was taken from “Tom Swift and His Dynamo-Electromobile”. Something as easy as switching from the built-in music to my phone took about three minutes to figure out. The external door handle is needlessly complicated. That there’s no way to turn the car off without using the providing card, unless I want to install, the app is also ridiculous. The fact that I have to take my eyes off the road to adjust almost anything and that there’s no tactile feedback is a total dealbreaker.
That was one of my pros for the BoltEV. Physical buttons everywhere including a volume knob, shifter was normal, gas and brake pedal. Basically an EV in a ICE body. If they could have just figured out faster charging speed and a battery pack with more range I think they would have had a winner.
They didn’t want a winner because they make much more money on ICE vehicles, including after the sale.

Just testing to see if this quote and reply works.
