another bit of bullshit - manufacturers listing NEDC range instead of WLTP because the number is bigger (not so bad on 2025/2026 cars, but pretty common on 2024 cars)
@huwr yes :(
they try and cram too much shit in there
@decryption @huwr my vote is for a used BMW i4 eDrive 40. The greatest damn car ever made*
*I'm not biased, you're biased!
@rustyshelf @huwr I like it, wife doesn’t (also still expensive!)
@decryption My parents' car is such a cram-the-features-in-without-a-thought car. The door handles don't even work. You have to press a button near the door handle, not the door handle. It also yells at you for not paying attention while you're driving. $95K shit box imho
@huwr @decryption That's why I always buy VWs: they're not great value these days, but they're the car-est of cars on the road, with minimal techno-BS in the way. If they'd only sell an electric wagon in Australia I'd buy it tomorrow...
@decryption I like electric cars and would gladly buy one but it seems all modern cars are awful
