That’s the thing I keep telling people around me. It’s not only RAM. Too many critical components have ram.

If you increase RAM, you increase computer prices. (And I’m talking ALL kinds of computer, from microcomputers to desktop to servers)

If you increase computer prices you increase costs for almost everything

  Modern cars have 90 GB of RAM on average.

    90GB of both RAM+NAND combined. I’m guessing most of it is actual persistent storage for all the stuff the infotainment system uses (including imagery and offline map data for GPS, which is probably a big one), rather than actual memory in the sense of desktop computing.
