Does the multi link rear setup justify the price bump?

And the charging flap failed design, so thoughtlessness and carelessness.

Well, because charging with MG or BYD even Ora does not have this hood vs flap issue, competition has no such inconvenience issue, hence I think he has a point. It may not bother u, but I think some will be bothered. Especially if you are the type that is a bit clumsy and forgetful

Yes. But few can  match BYD in the way it get seen, heard and talked about ...

BYD is now like Xiaomi, they are everywhere and in not so subtle way, I may add

Look at their newest invested facility ...

If only buying car is about spec, Chery Omoda may win, but when thinking about the whole ownership confidence and service, BYD wins big

Yeah, the MG ZS is quite dated but the price is cheaper than the BYD and Chery competition. Maybe some people will prefer it due to the lower price and high riding position. For me personally, it is not very appealing also. I wonder if SAIC will sell some of their other brands in Malaysia. We could do with more choices in the EV space.

I believe the bigger players from China like BYD, SAIC/MG, Chery, Geely will definitely survive. Brands like Neta are more high risk IMO.
Anyways, I hope the Koreans bring in some EVs at a good price. Will definitely feel more optimistic buying a Kia or Hyundai because I know that they make reliable vehicles.
