Like the title says, are there any EVs that just have a Bluetooth radio and that's it? Like a normal car, not a smartphone on wheels? If not, do you all think that this will actually happen at some point? This is the main reason why I can't (and will never) buy an EV. I like to have actual buttons everywhere on my car. I think those massive tablets on these cars with all the touch buttons are very dangerous. I like an "entertainment system" that only connects to my phone with either a headphone jack ~~of~~ or Bluetooth. It's a car, not a PC.

I live in the US. I wish we had access to some European cars. I'm originally from the middle East and all those cars you mentioned are there, not in the US for some reason. I remember we had Opel that is nowhere to be found in the US. Same with some Toyota trucks like Helix... Etc

Ah yeah, I feel like there's better selection here, definitely. I think they sold the Volkswagen e-Golf in the US, no? Not great range but it's just a Golf for the most part. Not still manufactured though, would have to look used.

I'm not sure. The laws are so fucking weird and stupid in this country.
