I still have my 2015 Nissan Leaf, despite cycling through three other EVs since then. And while the Leaf isn't going to work for a lot of people, it does have manual door locks and in general the electronics are far simpler than other EV models. It's by far the most reliable EV I've driven - never failed to start or experienced a mechanical problem. So I get what you're saying. Wish there were more simple options out there.

It does feel like Nissan's mission with that car is to make sure to use the most outdated technology possible. That includes charging it.
