Ok, thanks for the useful points! As your view, it seems Non-EV car still necessary as a standby car and not an good idea to have only 1 EV Car in a household?
Oh... so, Petrol still the most convenient at the moment la?
Ah... hybrid expensive maintenance, here's the point! Does it mean double the service cost (Petrol & EV Like)?
I remember a neighbor who owns a Civic Hybrid finally sold out because of Battery Kong. I still he only own for less than 5 yrs!
I thought it was Auto switch in between Petrol vs Battery mode, which means user cant decide!? As X90 seller mentioned... like below 40km it switches to Battery Mode and above 40km then I'll turn to Petrol Mode!
Wah... it an be Campur Guna the Petrol + Electric Motor 😲 never know!
So, you won't go for EV at the moment and highly recommend Hybrid?
Hybrid are way better than EV because you no need worry any range problem. 5 min full tank (Petrol). Go to mall or Airport, I park at Hybrid / EV spot, hassle free. New type of Hybrid Car are PHEV. You can charge your car like EV. Old Hybrid such as Civic Hybrid / Camry Hybrid / Honda Insight are non PHEV. Japanese hybrid car in Malaysia market are all non PHEV, so you can't park at EV car spot.
Hybrid maintenance really really high and car after sales value very very low. If you plan to play play for few years then sell, forget about it. Every 10k need service the car like ICE car, my Prius in Japan service around Rm1-1.2k.
4-5 years need change car big Battery, Electric motor, Electric generator, Power control unit, and a power split device approx. Rm15k + Engine Part will be Timing Belt , Engine Water Pump + Gearbox Service another 5-7k (plus workmanship)
