In most U.S. zip codes, electric vehicles are cost-competitive with their gas-powered counterparts, according to a new study. And regarding emissions benefits of EVs, individual driving patterns matter as much as regional factors like the local electricity mix.

Until I can kit my 1991 Accord with a wholly owned conversion I will not be touching one, nor any other car built later than 2010.
That’s new cars, not just EVs
Hence why I said no car made past 2010… Its in the comment.
My early gen 9 civic is a year or two newer than that, but I think its the last model year it DID NOT have a sim.
It took me all of about 20 minutes to remove the SIM chip from my 2015 Leaf, following a youtube video that showed everything step by step.
AFAIK, all cars before 2021 still have physical SIM chips, so easy to remove and disable the telematics.
You can just disable connectivity on a KIA from the settings menu.
Even if you can’t remove a SIM (as in a case of an eSIM), simply disconnecting the mobile cellular antennas and grounding them would likely prevent it ever from connecting to a network.
I clearly do not have good reading comprehension
Understandable
You may be able to. I saw this the other day; really cool project: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8pY5Ntd/
