Sime Barbie: We don't do that here

LHD car can dump into RHD country?

I thought MITI sudah set RM100k above for import EV?

Majority buy a myvi also loan until die and EV min 100k.. how do you think ppl can afford that lol

Looks like ice car fans the one making most noises these days lol

SimeDarby: Ah, buka apa harga pun boleh jual, blame government je.

Yes Pauline tan article mentioned that the only reason why all these unsold inventory not piling up at our ports is due to the rhd/lhd issue.

Majority ppl don't want to admit that 'we' don't have the buying power, at the same time need to protect our 'national' car makers

Sealion RM 120k soon?

At the end of the day also must look at one's pockets la.

Manufacturers have both lhd and rhd models for export.

After discount it could be less than Rm100k. Buy used also very cheap but most owners cannot afford to sell because loan cannot cover purchase price losses.

So what is holding you back from owning an EV?

Register the car sell at 2nd hand price.

U need different mould for LHD and RHD, especially the dashboard and steering system.

The rest i think it is about the same.

how to do? new car masuk declare to kastam at RM70k, then another same car model masuk declare to kastam at RM50k?

EV in malaysia price stays

giler sakit hati wooo kalau in just few months, price dropped

not only lab rat buyer, the distributor also feel like kena butt raped

after discount 99k oklah 98k but still 100k lol

If buying a 100k car so easy Perodua won't be numba wan sales lol

Now say until buy used.. adui lol..like everyone like buying used car

That's why I say the anti ev/hater the one making these nonsense discussion and worst not even make sense at all sometimes lol

Thank our Great British colonial overlords?

Sime barbie is safe ...phew ......

Later Dage propose that whole asean change to lhd to foster greater economic integration owai.

Wonder if some models have sun roofs. Then during their golden week they can pretend to be Wu Jing and wave the china flag on top of their car

Damn that scene still gets ne

You joke, later ccp say LHD easier to produce for China can give you cheaper price madani really go and believe how?

BYD sell the car to Sime Darby declare at RM30k. Since the car is selling about the same price in China.
Then EV still duty free, so Sime Darby only need to pay 10% SST. So Sime Darby cost for the car is RM33k.
Because MITI not allow them to sell below 100k, but that is for un-register new car only. In order to sell the car below 100k Sime Darby just have to register the car and drive it for few thousand km and declare that as 2nd hand car and sell as 2nd hand price which MITI have no control off.

Ya you are right but if you walk into ByD, the amount of discount and goodies they give can easily bring it down below 100K. Also, with US Tariff and EU blocking entry of China EV cars, we are definitely the next port of call, they just have to reduce their price border to RM 100K. Wait till you see Sealion selling at RM 120K #soon.

Ya if BYD selling at RM 99 or 98K and perduo latest car coming out at RM 80K, would you rather buy an EV leader car by forking out another 20K or buy local producers first venture into EV cars?

Produa probably get their battery from ByD also.
