welcome to EV
been driving more than a year already

ur byd can go outstation easily, u need to try it to overcome any range anxiety u have.. many byd members travel to thai, really envy them bachelors lol..

going down south is a lot easier, almost every 50-100km got dcfc, no worries

eastcoast is doable too if u know where to charge/plan etc.

So far nope, but i have a habit to plug in at home back to full when the car reaches 50-60%
I like the interior, very insta story friendly haha
Yes, I was given a free 22kW wallbox, despite the car and my house only support single phase. Which means in the future if I want to upgrade to 3 phase car/house wiring, can use back same wallbox

If have to buy the charger cost around rm4-6k
Yup, but for now Im not willing to change my driving style and trouble myself along the highway, coz the other car im already used to driving 160km/h average all the way yet still able to get around 700km+ for a full tank. Definitely not possible on current EV's
Unique color, other color very common on other cars on the road

Many stop to charge for convenience purpose like go makan or prayers. 10-15 mins top up for additional 150km or so

Anyways do join the myevoc fb group if you haven’t.

I would like to read opinion of those EV owners who are staying in a condo with only 2 available charging points & no plug point at their parking space.

if in KV, can go layan malls that have destination chargers, normally they give you free charging in exchange of premium parking (sunway pyramid)

or just top up weekly at dcfc hubs, so many in KV.. drop by there 20-30 mins u get 80%. sufficient for the whole week

many factors:
whether ur car is 400v/800v architecture
whats the SOC when u charge
preheating on battery before charging etc...
