Face a penalty worth roughly 2 of their vehicles? Why would they even consider destroying the files for that?

Who would want a jaguar in 2026 🤮
I refuse to buy anything that isn't from the Japanese Big 3 - Honda, Toyota, Mazda (and begrudgingly Nissan or Mitsu). Even Nissan and Mitsu are way better than American or European cars.
No Subaru?
My biggest problem with the Japanese brands is how far behind the times they are. Toyota only recently released a second EV, and they are all uninspired. They built their reputation a long time ago, and have just been coasting on that. A 2027 Toyota is no more reliable than a 2001.
While long-term data is still light, it appears that most EVs, from most brands, are as reliable as a Toyota ICE.
That describes my driveway over the last 30yrs. Next one might be a Subaru though, those three aren't doing EV's well/at all here and reliance on gas long term is not in the plans. Subaru is going all EV in Europe next year and likely world wide soon, and I've liked what I've seen thus far.
