I’m curious if anyone knows if cars, especially electric cars, are vulnerable to EMPs?

My understanding is that EMPs are more of a concern for the tiny electronics on computers versus relatively large motors or batteries. So, an electric vehicle is still at risk, but I don’t think it’d be any more at risk than any ICE car that’s all computerized anyways.
With all the touch screens and computer controlled door handles I wouldn‘t bet on a Tesla in this showdown.
