It also comes with an external electric power supply attachment as standard so that external power supply is possible with the door windows closed to prevent rain and insects from getting in the car when in use."

Gotta be part of the snobby EV gang.....cars need to have frunks, car's need to be able to power your house in the event of an outage, and a new one....car's need to have flush door handles because the "regular" ones that Toyota has been using for ages ruins the aerodynamic flow of the car...(yes the freaking exterior DOOR HANDLES is something some EV nuts wanted to pick on.......its probably up there as one of the most pointless things to nitpick a car with....worse than the toyota cruise control stalk and the digital clock (which to be fair are perfectly functional, just dated looking in modern times), maybe up there with the one touch 3 blink turn signal function or the BMW style not staying in place stalks. Its almost as if the requirement of an EV or some type of Electrified vehicle HAS to have EVERYTHING electronic or powered electronically rather than it being a far less complicated (and far less failure prone) mechanical function
