    New ICE cars are just as much computers as EV’s are.

    And mind me asking where you live where they are 20-30k higher?

      I’ve got a new Mitsubishi ASX 8 years (wow, time flies) ago without a cellular modem for some 17 kEUR, since we could’t get the 15 kEUR model. I could imagine an ICE car of that size goes for 20-25 kEUR these days.

      An EV (not Chinese) without range anxiety (500+ km) and of about that size is probably 40-60 kEUR.

      Since I cannot get anything new but a cloud-tied snitch on wheels I guess I need to buy used, or disable the cellular antenna.
