WOW.
"The average repair bill for a traditional vehicle today runs $4,437.
For an electric vehicle, the average fix is 49% higher, or $6,618."
The cost to repair is high because of all the tech gadgets in today's models like parking assist and cameras; plus EV powertrains need processors.
And there's the built-in distraction, e.g. the dashboard is now a screen that requires you to look to operate anything. Invitation to a crash. (I like buttons, thanks).
