Even up 10% also cheaper than petrol

My current emas 7 is about RM0.10/km, using home charger with rate RM0.57/kwh, drove 300km charge about RM30+

Whereby my old myvi with fuel consumption at town driving about 13km/l, per km is about RM0.16.

If later on government remove fuel subsidy and i'm not entitle for any subsidy, my fuel cost will spike to RM0.23/km (Assuming ron95 RM3 per litre)

look far out....

how your emas going to be in 5 years time? can the same amount give the same millage?

After 7 years battery rosak... what is the cost????

what is the second hand value for your car after 5 years? can it beat petrol car value????

how much time you need to waste on the road if you use it for travel?

the way you reply, i doubt you even plan for your future wealth growth tongue.gif

Battery warranty 8 years

lepas 8 tahun??? how much is the cost of replacement????

if you plan to sell your car after 10 years of using... how many people willing to take risk to buy a car with battery age 10 years?

or if you plan to sell the car before warranty end, do eMAS allow you to replace battery at year 7 even no dmg so you can sell the car with brand new battery biggrin.gif

for now, EV is not a good tech... maybe hydrogen car

Battery warranty 8 years with 160k km, even if battery rosak and after warranty, just go third party workshop and diagnose which battery pack spoil and replace it only.

Second car value again, i'm intend to use for 10-15 years, by that time most car only has about 10-20% 2nd hand value of the original price.

Waste what time? DC charger is available at whole PLUS highway, from 30-80% take only 30mins.

I already foresee i'm not entitle for fuel subsidy and in future the government will impose carbon tax on ICE car or the petrol, by that time let's see how much it cost for u to drive with ICE car.

And oh ya, recently i read one post, the first gen of LFP battery on BYD Han, after using for 3 years and 600,000km, the SOH of the battery still at 90%.

anyway, there still many downside....

example, for 30min charging is just non peak hours...

i hv family, and most time we travelling during holiday time...

imagine travel during CNY or Hari Raya on highway with EV ... find charger might hv issue in future like that china is facing now....

not only wasting time to find charge.. you also need to spend time planning properly for a trip and make sure there is EV charge surrounding..

I did a lot research recently as i plan to replace my wife car... EV still not a good choice.. unless just to try out what is the fun of driving EV.. other that that.. i dont see benefit yet .. tongue.gif
