    Why does every car manufacturer peddle these overly complex designs with massive displays, a futuristic aesthetic, etc?

    People drive Corollas because they're cheap and reliable. Give me that with an electric motor.

      That's what the market expects from an EV

        I drive an EV. It sucks. Sucks. Sucks. Worst driving experience of all cars I've owned. The lack of buttons and crappy HVAC controls are things I notice daily.

        Outside of Tesla owners, I don't know a single EV owner who praises these elements. The EV market does not want this.
