There's the upcoming Slate trucks, but those are scheduled for Q4 2026. And... also probably going to be US exclusive for a bit. Oof.

The Slate truck is simple for YOU. It doesn't have lots of bells and whistles, but is still and electric vehicle that runs on computers. I haven't heard if it has a remote connection yet, but I bet it does. Also, Jeff Bezos is an investor and I am pretty sure it is not some new altruistic streak for Amazon to launch a consumer product that they can't monetize forever.

Slate will have no OTA capabilities. How they will monatize forever is by selling parts to users and educating them how to service themselves.
