One thing I don’t like about most new ICE cars no manual emergency brake lever. You flip or push a button. I always felt the manual emergency brake was for when you have brake failure so you can control manually apply brakes to rear wheels. I guess I’m too old fashioned, if something not broke why fix it? Just like fuel injection, why squirt fuel below valves knowing it going to cause carbon build up on intake valve at more rapid pace? For what? .03 more miles per gallon? I remember in early 90s when automatic locking doors was introduced, not long before people couldn’t escape vehicle when something happened like engine fuel injector leak fire?
As for electric car I doubt at my age I will ever own one. My 12 year old Honda still runs like new.
