With the advent of electric cars, a swan song was already being sung to the machine-builders.
Electronics technicians and software developers are needed in their place, which is true, competent ones would be added.
In the test fleet of the editorial team, several electrically powered test subjects have already made a negative impression.
In one, the screens were black, to compensate for this, the seat heating was running at full speed.
Another went out while driving, if you will, our first engine failure with an electric car.
We will report as soon as the error analysis in the factory has revealed something.
So here we need more reliability, but that alone will not win the future. Contrary to popular belief, every electric car drives like the other, but depends on competence in terms of chassis and driving behavior. If the manufacturer doesn't make an effort, an electric car quickly feels insignificant, drives somehow decoupled and does not affect the emotions beyond the all-round impressive acceleration. Ambient light games are sprawling inside everywhere, screens become playstations, something has to be offered when the motor and mechanics are missing.
But be careful, there are a lot of people who still see a car in a car.
They want to feel feedback on the steering wheel, experience precision in curves, and not be incapacitated by overly sensitive so-called assistance systems.
Constructing this is not a trivial task.
Arbitrariness would be poison.
After all, we buy cars because they look seductive and because they have a driving character.
