I'm from Melaka, target to receive before CNY. I'll PM you links to a WhatsApp group for Malaccans.

Maybank 1.98% is APV... frankly, my advise you can consider RHB variable loan (macam house loan...) effectively is 1.98%... and imagine if you do payment structure like Maybank's APV... its probably much lesser than 1.98%.

Some roadtax for the 366kW had prices... it was 3k+ which was 50% off the previous calculation method. That's probably why Loke trying to push it down further.

Somewhere in December I was offered 2.4 - 2.5 for fixed. Only the accelerated payment was 1.98.

150k 5y was 2.4% in Dec'23 for me. So I took RHB variable which was effectively 1.98%.

Alvin? I'm gonna get him to install mine at Melaka too. Quoted RM750.

I asked my RHB Banker, he described me as a card with some value in it. Pretty neat, I didn't expected this. Even MBB gives JomCharge which is one of the priciest around and limited.

Drop by Melaka town, do ping me .

Missing one pedal driving, and another one to be verified is... it is more prone to hitting speed bumps than Model 3? Seal has longer wheelbase.

I floored to 130kmh ish, the M3LR was limited to that speed ha ha ha...

Multiple chances to floor on the drive route, there’s a lot of those mini bumps where you can slow down a lot then floor it close to speed limit until next bump arrives.

It has regenerative braking, it happens as you press brake pedal.

Remove the number plate, stick at the holder behind. Works like a charm.

Had time to burn in between fetching my child to drawing class, decided to drop by BYD Sing Kwung Melaka.

My impression on the seal, nice DRL on the bottom side and lots of high gloss black piano finish which is a swirl magnet but once it is buffed it looks really high quality! I'm a sucker for these 2 tone rim, black and polished metal. Rear tail lamp fully connected looks good, reminds me of those Porsche and Proton S70. Good color options with no surcharge $. Trunk and frunk is on the smaller size though.

Interior is a little overwhelming for me, there's a lot of buttons and different sorta materials. Dashboard height is on the higher side for me, I guess due to the interfaces. Player has CarPlay (yay! love this) and the screen can be rotated which I love a lot. Dynaudio speaker system, I expected it to be better. Good headroom space in front and rear side, ample of space. HUD is big and nice, but would be better if more information is included in like the BMW or Smart #1.

Salesman offered test drive and he checked that the single motor model was available, so why not . I was late by 5 minutes, someone took the dual motor out (but here's the catch, the uncle took it for a really slow ride la, I saw the car in between and came back earlier to the showroom on the single motor tsk). Accelerator pedal is akin to those expensive car which I'm not used to... One pedal driving is missing here, so for those who doesn't want a big change into this EV, this is a good starter. Reviews says the brakes were "grabby" but I was not bothered about it. Accelerator is kinda lagging/not responsive, felt like after I floor it and there's some sort of lag before the power kicks in (accelerator isn't linear?). Was hoping to test the 3.8s but yeah I guess wasn't too impressed with the single motor. So far the Brabus Smart #1 had the most monstrous acceleration I've felt among EV that I tested.

Well all in all... I still like Model 3, this test drive experience further affirmed my choice . This car would be a good for those transitioning from ICE to EV and does not want a big change, start button... stalks, gear knob controls and lots of physical buttons.

The other day I think I went too fast, not detected 🤣 but coincidentally I just replaced my number plate too.

I keep my McD sticker around.. when drive through I just show them sticker LOL... there's nothing on my windscreen.
