I dont know if you can say that about traditional OEMs BEV's which seem to be following the Telsa model of complete interconnectivty of all systems

traditional OEMs do not make a EV that is just a ICE with Electric Motor and battery, the traditional OEMs BEV platforms are completely redesigned to put in "features" that no one wants, and no one asked for to enable OEM control over every part of the car, enable them to turn features on and off in software and OTA (you know so they can make your pay monthly for your heated seats)
