Saw a green BYD Atto 3 being towed today. Any idea what could have happened?

I recall last time just 1 month after launch, got ppl’s Atto3 need to be towed cause they die2 try to reach beyond the remaining/planned mileage.

Its a bit late to be doing shit like this, no? I've seen Youtubers do this to find out the actual range with tow trucks on standby, but for a normal user, its kind of stupid coz the car will keep informing you to recharge.
While I hope its due to a flat battery, would be good to know if there are other issues coz I am contemplating buying one in the near future.

I’m wading into the lions’ den here, so go ahead and maul me with your answers for what I’m about to ask…

As most of you would know, I own a Cayenne and a 911 in Sydney - both rather environmentally egregious dino-juice guzzling jalopies.

I also happen to be going thru a Porsche phase at the moment, having gone through a Mercedes phase earlier in my car driving career, and having just weaned myself off a BMW phase prior to starting my love affair with Stuttgart.

Porsche just came out with the Cayenne GTS 9YA E3, or more specifically the E3.2 since the new facelifted model was announced earlier this year.

It is a direct middle finger to all the tree-huggers out there. Instead of downsizing or going hybrid before going all EV, it threw out the old Twin Turbo V6 and lumped an almighty V8 into the engine bay.

It’s a V8 and it will sound glorious.

I’m thinking of buying it on the last possible minute before the order books close (could be in 3 to 5 years’ time before the new Cayenne EV hits the road) and would like to hear your thoughts on my potential purchase.

Would you, if given a chance, go for one of the last V8s or would you go all EV, since I already have a E3 Cayenne already?

Please be gentle.

Thanks in advance

Definitely go for the V8 if this is what floats your boat. For those for whom a car is an appliance to go from A to B, ICE cars would no longer make any sense once the infrastructure is up and petrol prices are fully floated in Malaysia. But most petrol heads are downright against EV and they will still get ICE especially the V8 or V12s if they still can. I think it will also hold its value well into the future and become a classic.

Anyone got comments or feedback on MG4 range of EV cars?

I'm also interested in the MG4 EV SR or ZS EV but they don't seem to be very popular in Malaysia.
The price increase for the LR version of the MG4 is very steep if not I will be considering that also.
