Tesla owners are overwhelmingly men, and the most common occupations are engineer, software engineer, and manager of operations, one study found.

IMHO Tesla is too unreliable. There are enough EVs available that are more reliable (and cheaper).

I just want an EV that is:

-Reasonably priced.

-User repairable/modifiable.

-No stupid luxury gimmicks (fake "self driving" or "self parking", 360° cameras for outside view, electronic locks that will most likely fail in a couple years, etc...)

-NO FUCKING SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES like those stupid heated seats!!

Hyundai announced they're not doing those stupid subscriptions, might be worth considering.

Edit: more like making it free to use as long as you're the legal owlet owner of the car, still better than the other manufacturers

It'll have to run on a couple of AAA-batteries then.
