So reviewing this more closely. This is a joke. What is reliability? I would say, that the car starts in the morning, that it gets you from point A to B, that it isn't in the shop. But that only appears to be half the equation here. While annoying is a panel gap or interior trim issue affect reliability? That's rather weird.

Looking at the data, in terms of true reliability EVs appear to be about on par with ICE cars which is quite the feat considering they have a 120+ year lead. Hammer out the manufacturing defects and the lead seems easy to achieve.

It's also a little weird to not give any nod to the almost complete lack of maintenance for EVs. Is it not a reliability win that you are able to gas up at home and have no maintenance to do other than tires?
