I need a new car, and I really want to go full electric. I'm wondering if anyone regrets buying one? What are the downsides?

A coworker had a problem with one that decided to do a software update in a parking lot that ended up bricking the car. After that, they went back to a gas powered car.

Holy crap. That's an expensive software update. Did the manufacturer provide any kind of remuneration?

Your coworker should be able to sue them then.

I saw someone on the news talking about having a friend whose family member had an EV, and they also had a bad experience. I think they were just complaining that their electricity was expensive though.
