QUOTE(stevenryl86 @ Aug 21 2023, 11:22 PM) Lithium batteries don't explode - they simply burn. You are far more likely to see car explosions at petrol stations:Most likely reason why lithium batteries burn is when they are short-circuited, such as when they are dented or punctured. The blade design is to prevent cascading cell fires. |

QUOTE(yeapsc73 @ Aug 22 2023, 02:46 PM) The so-called EVs that caught fires in China were mostly PHEV, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, which have internal combustion engines (ICE) and batteries. BYD also makes some PHEV models.PHEV are more prone to catching fires than ICE, probably because it has petrol and batteries. ICE are more prone to fires than EV. ![]() PHEV simply doesn't make sense any more now that EVs can be quickly charged using DC fast charger. babisotong liked this post

For such a fire battery/ controller case, how do we claim ?
Insurance? or warranty claim to the manufacturing? Do the manufacturing warranty include such a defect for EV car? |

If your family has multiple EV cars and no more space to park in the house, need to park outside the gate by the road. How to charge those cars? The longest charger cable available is only 25 ft right?

QUOTE(Boy96 @ Sep 18 2023, 06:50 AM) What are your thoughts on the cost of servicing your BYD car? Do you feel like it's reasonable for what they do during your "service" visits? I ask because I felt puzzled that an EV would cost this much to service every year. The only argument is that it's cheaper than ICE service. I mean sure, but why is BYD charging so much for an EV that supposedly has low maintenance? |

Its not a high as how much hyundai charges (then again under same sime darby group)The parts price is still somewhat ok just the labour cost abit on the high side |

QUOTE(blmse92 @ Oct 10 2023, 09:27 AM) Extended range. The car really can do around 7.3sec to 100 but BYD tunes it in a way that its a smooth acceleration instead of push to your seat feeling blmse92 liked this post
