        So much easier UNTIL one of the six million proprietary silicon bullshit breaks (or planned obsolescence) and you’re SoL without official manufacturer support.

        EVs are a maintainability and reparability nightmare, despite not needing maintenance as often

        Anyone crazy enough to design a FOSS EV?

            90% of your power train is proprietary electronics that are designed to be opaque and break of you try and “tamper” with them

            Most of an ICE car is tangible, rather widely replicable, blocks of metallic alloys
