Are there any EV cars without any "technology"? (lemm.ee)

Like the title says, are there any EVs that just have a Bluetooth radio and that's it? Like a normal car, not a smartphone on wheels? If not, do you all think that this will actually happen at some point? This is the main reason why I can't (and will never) buy an EV. I like to have actual buttons everywhere on my car. I think those massive tablets on these cars with all the touch buttons are very dangerous. I like an "entertainment system" that only connects to my phone with either a headphone jack ~~of~~ or Bluetooth. It's a car, not a PC.

If you're going to go to all the trouble of an EV conversion, I'd suggest getting something stylish or with a nice interior (or whatever you prioritize) but a shitty/unreliable stock drivetrain, since you're ripping it out anyway. In a sense, making a reliable Honda into an EV is a waste of a reliable Honda.

Also don't touch our beloved nsx or integra. Unless it's cooked then go right ahead!👍

Do you really think somebody would pay $300k+ for an NSX and convert it to EV?

I thought the same thing when someone converted a classic 911 into an ev. I mean they probably sold the drivetrain to other people but still.
