    Genuinely anti consumer article. Extreme anti right to repair sentiment.

      I thought you were kidding.

      The bottom line: Electric vehicles, whether they have two wheels or four, nearly always come with sophisticated software that needs to be maintained by the manufacturer.

      • Buying such a vehicle is therefore a bet that the manufacturer will remain in business and will continue to support its legacy vehicles.
      • The problem is that consumers don’t have enough information to be able to realistically judge that risk.

      Fucking hell, this was begging for a corporate boot to lick.
