My mother is the least tech-savvy person I know and she found it incredibly easy to intuitively use an EV (Volt). She also borrowed a friend's Tesla and had zero issues with it. Perhaps you are not as tech-savvy as you might think?

In fairness, the software is much easier to get up to speed on in the Tesla, especially as it relates to charging.

Often others require messing around with smartphone apps, often with very bad UI.

The ChargePoint app was the main killer. It told me several times that I am ready to charge but the charger wouldn’t unlock. Thankfully after a while a guy came by and told you need to do something in your wallet before it will work. Don’t remember the details.
