- New EVs often have teething issues that negatively impact reliability, even if the core technology is solid.
- We generally say that old, proven cars like the Nissan Leaf and Tesla Model 3 are safer bets for reliability-oriented buyers.
- A new video from Out Of Spec, however, shows that even the most mature cars can have gremlins.
It's been a bad week for our friends at Out Of Spec Studios. A Volvo EX30 had an electrical fault and a "do not drive" warning while they tested it. Then the channel's long-term VinFast VF 8 left Jordan stranded when it bricked itself. A day later, their leased Nissan Leaf bricked itself, too. At least they're getting good videos out of it.
