I'm probably going to sound tinfoil-hattish here, but how do you know that your EV isn't already telling its manufacturer how far you drove last year? If you have a Tesla, it almost certainly is; and if you have a Leaf, I wouldn't be surprised if it is. If I'm not mistaken, and someone correct me if I am, both of these cars have full time mobile data connections back to their "masters." All in the name of "product improvement," mind you. The car knows its own VIN. Do you see any reason to think that if your DMV asks for that information, and maybe offers a little incentive to cover their costs, Tesla and/or Nissan would say no? I don't. "This isn't your father's Oldsmobile." Indeed it isn't.
