Any owner can share experience on actual highway range for both standard and long range?
I drove once to JB, around 350km in total, I spent around 70% on SR, so that translates to around 500km range.
But driving habits affects the range by a lot. I also noticed that when I floor the pedal, and/or cruise above 140kmph, the battery drops significantly faster.
This is why autopilot technology still has a long way to go for countries like M’sia. Here we never drive dead center because we’re constantly on the lookout for potholes, lorries kicking up stones, snakes falling from trees, etc. Fully autonomous certification might work fine in a first world country with billiard table smooth roads, but using it here would be the equivalent of a dumb white tourist wandering into Selayang.
Even without autopilot, simply trusting Apple/Google Maps or Waze to find the shortest route for you is a lottery, because you never know what kind of crazy minefield you will have to drive through, especially during seasons of rainy weather where the smooth road you used today might be different tomorrow after an overnight thunderstorm. Making an autopilot implementation tackle these variables (and be relatively affordable) will likely take far longer than most tech companies forecast. Having sensors that can detect a pothole hiding under a puddle is great, but what good is it when the computer is still making the car drive straight through it?
…and I haven’t even touched on the impossibility of making such tech rempit-proof.

Do you even know what is autopilot vs enhanced autopilot vs FSD?

Should I even give a shit? I was speaking about autopilot technology in general (whatever marketing buzzword you give it is irrelevant), not specific to Tesla’s implementation.

Lmao why the fk. I didnt even make any post or comments for the past few days
But I do know some of the mods there can be very bias towards EV that any different opinion will be silenced
And some are very nice and fair like Datuk Shahrol the founder
Founder is nice but the mod is not (I'm not even sure why he is appointed in the first place). You can go in and have a view or search for answers related to your queries. But don't try to ask for opinions. It's all too biased.
Edit: Can't wait to see Tesla Model Y Juniper. I might place a booking for it. Hopefully it comes with 22KW AC Charger.

fuh byd seal under rm200k for performance. really want to fight with m3 huh
BYD have no choice other than pricing it lower than Tesla in order to compete. Just look at the price difference (between Atto 3 & Seal) between China and Malaysia.
