I've always wanted to go electric but the tracking in modern cars was a nonstarter for me. This is a huge step in the right direction, thank you for sharing!
LOL at thinking Bezos isn’t tracking every breath you take in this thing.
Hopefully any tracking would be easy to remove, I mean it doesn't even have a stereo so wiring should be pretty simple, of course unless its baked I to the ECU or something
The telematics module is an optional extra-cost accessory! It doesn't come with it by default!
I’m hoping the low price will incentivize jail breaking and hacking these things if needed. We need OSH vehicles (like local motors promised but never delivered). EVs should make it a lot more possible for kit cars to exist, but maybe soon.
