You don't need a computer in a car, especially an electric one. Sure, you want some electronics, but do you think 1970s milk floats had computers in them. Today's EVs are basically the same thing with better motors and batteries.
Software control should be kept for luxury aspects of the vehicle. Nothing critical.
Tesla would disagree, lol. But then again, for the price, the whole car is a luxury.
Go to hell Elon
I have never heard of a vehicle that was referred to as a milk float, ever. What they is?!

Basically how milk men would deliver fresh milk to your doorstep in the early hours of the morning.
