Ford asks suppliers for ideas to cut EV costs in an all-win-or-lose push for profitability - Lemmy

How about not having every fucking feature imaginable to add to a car? Safety features? Fine. I don’t need a touch screen. I want knobs. Hell, I don’t even fucking care if the windows are crank roll. I just need to get to work so I can try to pay the bills that I need to.
Knobs are more expensive than a touch screen
Yup, and it makes the car look more future-ish to impress potential buyers! It’s a win for shareholders and a loss for safety and ease of use.
