The data found about 68 per cent of car shoppers in 2022 who did not own an EV showed an intent to purchase one, but that dropped to 56 per cent this year.

It still doesn’t mean it’s one of the main reasons why sales are down, which is what you implied at first. Proof of that? Gas cars have the same kind of tech, people still buy them.
Of course, I don’t think it has a major effect on sales in the grand scheme of things. Speaking of only my own reasons, I personally wouldn’t buy a car that spies on me if I had other choices. That takes all electric cars off the table.
I do agree that modern gas cars also have spyware in them (it’s a fact), but ALL EVs have them.
At least with gas cars, you can still buy one old enough to be free of spyware.
Eventually, all cars will have spyware, but forcing people to buy them out of necessity isn’t the same as them choosing to buy it because they want to.
I don’t care either way. Car manufacturers have made it easy for me to pick cycling as my main form of transportation. LOL
