Too expensive. Not owner repairable. Too much unnecessary tech baked in.

There’s a path forward for EV’s, but I don’t think the current philosophy is it.

Dacia spring has no unnecessary tech 😍 and is cheap

But, it is small 😂🤷🏻‍♀️ big enough for my family, at least.

Just hope you're never involved in an accident, Dacias (both EV and ICE) have abysmal safety ratings.

I know 😇 and thank you for that good wish ❤️

I already had an accident, where someone drove into the back of my car. Luckily nothing happened to me and his endurance paid me for a new Spring 😁

Cost of repair would have be been about half of the price of the car itself. But I know, that the endurance somehow sold my wreck after all (had forgotten to disable tracking and was able to see the location of the old car 😂)
