i really like this one, it's kinda expensive tho, might be out of your price range 😉
lol tell me about it, however using that in USA is not really an option. Bicycle is option still not complete solution
Check out Aptera https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNjUdTJjiNk
They appear to be completely behind supporting right to repair and providing schematics so you can do your own repairs as well. Additionally, efficiency appears to be their primary goal, which I would really like as a "daily commuter".
They don't have a car in the market yet, but when they do, I'm buying for sure. You should look into them https://aptera.us/

interesting, they still don't have much info on infotainment/brain of car but right to repair is promising and generally means better approach. I'll follow their progress.
BYD the Chinese car company?
I'm assuming you mean "Build your device" in that case are there resources? Is this like kit car?
I meant the Build Your Dreams Chinese company. I fixed it :)
Oh that's actual name, thanks for pointing out. I'll check them
Even a lot of non EVs rely on cloud service for safety measure (Lane keeping assist, emergency braking comes to my mind first). There are more and more assist in vehicles in general. Seems like government and laws are pushing for it. So I don't think it will stop in the near future (5-10 years)
There's obviously privacy concern but I find a lot of the automated system don't even have manual override. Unlike plane autopilot where it can always be overriden by manual interaction as fallback. A lot of vehicles don't have redundancy design like this so I see this is a huge problem.
I wasn't aware lane keeping and emergency braking needs cloud connectivity, wouldn't that be hazardous (if internet connectivity is not available) ?
Without cloud connectivity, it would presumably operate like a normal completely human controlled vehicle, so no capability would be lost.

To be fair, pilots undergo actual training and in the U.S. I think they have to get relicensed every so often. Drivers take a written test and then a single driving test and they're licensed for the rest of their life, regardless of any new circumstances.
Also autopilot on planes is way simpler, it's just a compass and a few measurements of hight, speed etc and that's basically it. There is no need for breaking at stoplights, pedestrians, emergency breaking and all that stuff.
Wait does cloud lane assist exist in vehicles in the road now? What happens if the signal cuts out?
