EV functionality being turned off ......... amd more

[Malc1]

Hearing today that Nissan are turning off early EV Leaf car functionality due to 2G being disbanded and this affects pre 2016 cars at the moment

Road Safety people are trying to get manufacturers to abandon the ipad type driver's screen due to drivers attention being taken away from actually driving and causing accidents

and Mazda have refused to move over to this type of ipad screen on their new cars generally  ..................

Wondering if Lexus are taking note of the EV " turning off " concept ........  not charging extra to turn on functionality ( which I understand Tesla are now doing ) 

AND what the real life is of the Lexus EV and modern car driver's screen vista 

If Lexus make change to all this will it likely have a much accellerating depreciating value to their current car models  ??

Just some thoughts !

It's nothing specifically to do with EVs, it is a connected car issue which applies to all modern Lexus models.
