I'm all for reducing attack surfaces but we all know Tesla can already remotely disable their EVs and they are one of the most popular EVs in AU - so how will banning Chinese and Russian EV fix the problem? It just moves the control to another country. At least if we diversify it will take multiple countries working in unison to disable all of our vehicles hah.
One way to mitigate this is by giving customers control of the SIM cards that are installed in their cars. Manufacturers should not be allowed to preinstall SIMs! And the car should run without a SIM (no blocking of functionality). That would do more for this issue than banning chinese EVs.
