Most modern cars don't have those, regardless of powertrain.

Yeah and those ones are immune to the theft style of removing the ignition barrel and using a USB to start it. Anything push button is immune.

Yes, once again, regardless of powertrain.

You do understand that the statement of 'EVs are immune to this' is factually accurate though, right? The entire point being that the problem of Hyundais and Kias being extremely stealable won't effect the car in this post.

You do realize that has nothing to do with them being EVs, right? What you said was "It's an ev so immune to the old theft style", indicating that they're "immune" because they're EVs.

It's like saying turquoise cars are "immune". Sure, purely out of the fact that turquoise cars don't exist.

It's not like using turquoise cars instead of EV cars because EV cars do exist.
