Reading about hackers invading supermarket fridges, hospital blood centres, and more, it is worth to ask the question: Do our recent internet connected Calis can be at danger? How to take them off internet grid and whit what consequences?

Don’t pair your phone to the vehicle.

Vehicles has been identified as high cyber threat risks for a long time, with a series of high profile attacks on infotainment systems about 10 years ago (largely university projects exposing holes)

Introduced in 2021 for new vehicles and mandated 2024 for all there have been some incredibly strict rules that have been implemented regrading Cyber security on vehicles, on the connected services and the management of over the air updates. These require the OEM and each car to undergo rigorous testing, threat monitoring, mandated updates and also ensuring new software packs don't create new risks. (Same rules that mean the OEM have to declare the contents of the over the air update)

They are generically referred to as Reg 155/156 if you want to do some web searches.

Clearly never say never, but lots of these Fridge attacks are old systems with no active cyber management but no one considered that they would be attacked.

Exactly this - that's why we can't change anything with coding anymore - fully encrypted with server side keys etc
 
Personally, I wouldn't lose sleep worrying about this. I guess it is possible but I would have thought a cyber attack on your internet connected campervan is probably low on Putin's to do list.
 
I’m sure it’s going to happen, with so many EVs on the road, with a full time connection to the internet, there’s bound to be groups actively researching how to bring vehicles to a standstill or worse. It would be a catastrophe for a country’s road infrastructure.
