This is what the market is being told to expect from an EV.

The Dacia Spring is what the market actually seems to want:

It's a car, not an Autobot.

The entry level model doesn’t even have an infotainment panel, it has a shelf you can place your phone on and use an app if you wish.

Sounds like optimal solution to me.

That sounds exactly like how an entry model should be?

Most cars have at least a radio

Perfect.

Lmao if that were true, everyone would be buying them. We aren’t, because they suck. It’s a decent car if you just need something cheap, but cheap doesn’t mean good. A raspberry pi isn’t better than a M5 just because it’s cheap.

It depends on what you're doing. If a raspberry pi meets the needs of your project, I'd say it /is/ better because it's cheaper.
