Why don’t EVs have standard diagnostic ports—and when will that change? | OBD-II was implemented to monitor emissions, but EVs don’t have tailpipes.::OBD-II was implemented to monitor emissions, but EVs don’t have tailpipes.

Established manufacturers could technically ditch the port on EV models, but they don’t because they have other models which are still ICE, so they need it there. Many of the modules are shared between models, so they use the same bus when it’s ICE, hybrid, or EV.
