I’m planning to buy my first car, but I’m seeing a lot of brands implementing policies that seem to take advantage of their customers. Things like requiring extra subscriptions for basic features, tracking driving habits, and forcing unnecessary data collection have me worried. Are there any car brands out there that don’t engage in these types of anti-consumer practices? I’m looking for a reliable company that respects its customers in the long run. Any advice would be appreciated!
In the US, you’re probably best off with an older Nissan Leaf. It’s got a big community behind it for mods and upgrades.
Don’t buy a Tesla, or an ICE car, for obvious reasons.
What if they need to drive further than 60 miles. I follow the old leaf community and it’s not where you want to start with cars.
60 miles?! My 2011 Nissan Leaf can make it 30 on a good day with fair winds. That being said, I love it!
