KWH higher, battery heavier?

Neta V then. RM60 road tax only, though trading off performance.

You mean V2L? V2L already in kia ev6 and ioniq 5.

wait til road tax for ev vehicle is formalized... we will see how many ev owners will switch back to normal combustion car

Yes, not the motor/engine but the brake, a/c, wiper, etc...more like inspection

so common house 3 din plug power point already can charge ???..

recently i saw a lot of VVIP plates(single number plate) change their car from ICE to EV
but not to china brand but to BMW or merc
yes, same service schedule as ICE but inspection only

but there is 1 thing i notice nobody around us talked about
but i saw people in HK talked about it already which i don't know is part of the service schedule or not
which is to remove carbon buildup from the electric motor

because from their BMW iX xDrive40 review video, they need to remove the carbon buildup at the motor within a period of time as maintenance

always can but it depends how much u travel to be feasible or not
if u travel longer distance, you'll always see your range keep getting lesser and lesser each day
because your charging speed cannot keep up with your distance traveled
this indicate u need a faster charging box at your home

I thought all EV use brushless motor

This article I found https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a3949...tors-explained/

BMW try to be different...the hefty price to pay for being different

then mean single phase already can liao,.. no need 3 phase ???

I will just wait for more haha

All these weird ass name/brand I never heard of until now...

Hai guys, lama tak buka tered pasal kereta. As some u know, I sold my old Suprima earlier. And had it replaced with an EV.


Why EV/BYD Atto 3?

- Want something with similar characteristic as Suprima, big boot space, huge rear legroom, must have many features such as pano roof, AEB, lane keep, adaptive cruise etc etc

- Need to be powerful (over 160hp) yet with minimal maintenance

- I dont have any kampung to balik to, so no range anxiety, even if need to go for that maybe twice a year out of KL trips, can take other car

- To carry stuffs when needed, other cars at home boot too small to fit large item



- Looked at competitors:

Honda HRV : 140k car with Honda City Interior, seats too firm, boot too small and CVT puik. Honda CRV: Too old

Mazda CX-30 : Cramped interior, Boot too small

Peugeot 3008/VW Tiguan : Not much features to play with, no adaptive cruise control, AEB etc etc

Ora Good Cat: Boot too small, slow charging.

CHARGING, How much does it cost?

- Over a month, I only driven 1535km


And here is my home energy usage




Roughly RM 120++ for 1500km distance, this I set my wallbox charging app to count using TNB highest block electricity tariff. I also charge outside when I go mall to makan, charging outside is free, only pay for parking.

My fav is Sunway Velocity and Wangsa Walk




Sounds cheap right? Actually is not, because to upgrade my house electricity (RCB/MCCB from 40amps to 63amps) since my house was from the 80's cost RM3.5k, the wallbox itself is free from BYD, but installation cost is Rm1.2k.

Where is the furthest you've ever driven it?

- Not far, furthest is from home to KLIA then straight to Seremban. then pusing2 seremban town. around  140-150km.. Battery left 70%

- Stayed at Royale Chulan Seremban, they allow 3 pin charging there. So plug in at night, next day checkout battery already fully charged, again... Free of Charge

.
So yeah, this is my experience with EV now. Feel free to ask anything in regards to EV or even the car itself. Ill answer it truthfully, unbiased based on my personal POV.

yes, but not for tesla. i dont know why tesla not willing to pay that patent up. quite a good feature.

maybe they wanna develop their own, but 2023  liao their cars still do not support V2L.

byd patented it in 2012 and 2017 open up the patent to the rest of the rivals, provided they pay up la.

byd now going for car to car charging. means if ur car no battery half way, another ev can come and charge your ev up.
