BTW, the rise in electronics in modern cars is a net win: they typically are lighter, simpler and cheaper to run energy-wise than what they replace. But it's not enough to overcome the trend in bigger cars that includes not just style and convenience, but safety too. Your 2010 "Rabbit" is way safer in a crash than your mid-70s tin can was.
