Chill no need to track so detail. Later it will add to your anxiety.

For now I see only Tesla with proven 7years ++ and 300-400k miles done by american and their battery health still above 84-86% 😳😳

And this is based on old battery tech not LFP…
*
LFP said to have 3000 to 6000 charge cycle

Even 3000 X say 400km range will get 1.2mil km mileage will last you 60 years

Initially I was hesitating between SR and LR but at the end pulled the trigger on LR after some deep thoughts.

The LR has a WLTP range of 678km using the 18-inch wheel and if we were to charge to 80% this thing still has a range of 542km which is similar to the SR at 100% of charge! Moreover, whenever there's a need for a long journey, we can always charge to 100% to get the maximum range, that's flexibility. Don't forget that the LR also has a higher DC charging speed of 250kW than the SR (capable of fully utilizing Tesla Supercharger's 250kW charging).

In addition to the above, the 17-speaker setup, the 4.4s century sprint plus AWD pretty much made this choice a no-brainer at a mere RM29k. In comparison to Model Y, the price gap between the SR and LR is also much smaller for Model 3.

29k is a good price for the upgrade for most thing. the only downside is the NMC battery which i still have some reservation so end up taking the RWD model instead.

Yes you can set the Regenerative Braking Level (page 79)

My pleasure, I’ve been growing my expertise in solving distance problems. Let's find how far can an EV with 84.6kWh battery travel with 180 Wh/km?

We can use the following formula to calculate the distance traveled by an EV:

distance = (battery capacity) / (energy consumption per kilometer)

where:

distance is the distance traveled in kilometers
battery capacity is the battery capacity in kilowatt-hours (kWh)
energy consumption per kilometer is the energy consumption per kilometer in watt-hours per kilometer (Wh/km)

Plugging in the given values, we get:

distance = (84.6 kWh) / (180 Wh/km)
distance = 470 km
Therefore, an EV with 84.6kWh battery can travel up to 470 kilometers with 180 Wh/km.
*
84.6kwh is the effective battery capacity for LR? I saw many contradicting kwh figures for LR and RWD

Yes its generally recommended to charge to 100% for SR battery (LFP) whilst for LR its recommended to limit to 80% (NMC). But you can go to 100% sometimes eg: long trips

But the reason you charge to 100% for LFP is so that you get a more accurate range estimate from the BMS (battery management system)




*
some small correction, u should charge the LFP battery to 100% ONCE A WEEK ONLY for calibration purpose, NOT EVERYTIME. And try not to keep the battery SOC at 100% for long period, i.e. time your next drive immediately/not long after the battery is charged to 100%

Tesla has done price cut in Singapore & Thiland before.....

Just for the uninitiated tesla price is known to go down (which is good) and also up (which is bad).

Tesla cuts prices of Model 3, Model Y vehicles in Singapore

Tesla Model 3 prices slashed again in Thailand – up to 11% cheaper than launch pricing
*
Tesla has no competition here in term of pricing so will not cut price anything time soon. Seal and smart not cheap either although selling much cheaper than Tesla in china

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

depends on the loan tenure also. previously maybank offered 2.0x% for 5 years, 2.2x% for 7 years, 2.4x% for 9 years. 170k loan.

150k 5y was 2.4% in Dec'23 for me. So I took RHB variable which was effectively 1.98%.
*
ya i also took RHB BR+0% so about 2% effective

My sentry mode is always on (except at home) but I still occasionally unable to unlock the door even with my phone key very near to the car. (Tesla App showing 'connecting'). Wonder if they're caused by the same issue.

so u saying i don't understand about financing and cash flow? lol that's the issue with u, very ignorant and thinking that u are the only person who knows everything. why u wanna complicate a small simple fact that the price of 2 different cars, say car A is rm100k and Car B is rm80k, and if the fact that u chose car B, doesn't matter u use cash or financing, u already saved rm20k upfront. Why do you wanna spin here and there?

Initially wanted to buy C200, end up buy Tesla. Shukur save 100k
