This is just the beginning

Now you know why so much anti-EV propaganda going around.

don't need oil change jer, still need to replace tires, absorbers, brake pads. safety checks every XXX KM

Singapore car expensive, cars very few and pertrol expensive. Only rich people can afford cars in Singapore.

Malaysia is different story. EV is still expensive, infra not enough and petrol still cheaper even without subsidy. And people depends on budget cars to move around. Pratical for SG, not for MY.

Now EV hype but looking at China, there is an over-production, price war, dealership closure and even EV producers going out of business. There is also talks of shifting from EV to Hybrid. Give it a few more good years, until things stabilize than everyone will see whether EV is just hype or for real. It will be quite amusing when owners of EV cars get the bill for the replacement of their battery packs or their EV producer has gone out of business.

Habislah kena ccp scam

Battery 8 years warranty, by then will be another new car jor ...

tyre every 3 years, absorber every 8 years, brake pad every eternity due to regen

not brake pad, but brake fluid, every 2 years.

small country

So sure the battery wont deteriorate meh.. maybe after 5 years start to give issues like your handphones.

ICE kena service every 10k km… twice a year…

Ev mostly service every 20k km… once a year…

Less money for service centre to make with less frequent visit….

tyre and absorber replacement will be faster than ICE due to EV heavyweight and stupid design where most of the EV using using low profile tyres

tulah go workshop service ICE sembang kacang about EV they always very anti punya kek

So, use ICE to help economy activities and keep jobs.

why charge kaw kaw and scam ice owner with expnsive part, else we all will stay using ice.

Also,
Majority of youths don't know how to drive 😅

yes true. There is parts need to be service, but it's fact that EV has 10times lesser parts than ICE, eventually lesser chances will broken also, lesser chance foreman cari makan.

Better worry for limited space to dispose the junk in 5 years time

Lucky Singapore car can not sell in Malaysia

Drive over to jb la open workshop there

If the manufacturer go out of business, give you 20 years warranty also no use

EV is best for SG.. small country. any EV mileage pun cukup..

How much petrol cost there?

Machem not cheap.

Can see the sales growth of EV quite rapid there year on year

this industry will be survival of the fittest...

how many stinkies own drive cars in the island...

ownship is so expensive..

There are thousand cars OTR.

In Singapore the problem with EV is the roadtax is freaking high in order to compensate the gov cannot collect fuel tax

Atto 3 roadtax there sgd 1.5k every year. Similar pice petrol car is less than $800

If drive model Y RWD, maybe 1 month only need to charge once for a family car.

The mainland of Singapore measures 50 kilometres (31 mi) from east to west and 27 kilometres (17 mi) from north to south

Not only EV,, most sgporean rather go JB car workshop

EV is not really kicking off in SG as well, you go look at the stats. I spoke to a few of my friends down south about EV, they find it a hassle charging cause >90% of ppl live in high rise

Photoshop died due to digital camera and smartphone. So car workshop will die too. It is the price of progress. If don't want progress now we should be all riding horses so stables can have business.😆

Last time my ex colleague Head of Marketing Olympus camera wooo…

Kasian kena VSS

I find EV adoption too slow. My ICE MPV drinks petrol like water and I need petrol prices to drop... LOL

MPV dan kenderaan sukan utiliti memang makan minyak agak kuatnye pun…

Last year + this year BYD already tapau all

This one in may

Check car prices in SG, below 200k sgd hard to find non ev. Even corolla cross is 200k++ sgd vs Atto at 160k+ sgd

Me more scare those Chinese manufacturers change their tech and models faster than the warranty period can cover.
Now already start using newer and cheaper EV batteries, those old batteries technology will going obsolete faster than the warranty. Not sure they are compatible or will do the spare part for older models

If not, dunno where they going to find replacements for warranty or after warranty period

problem is those pipu with cars in SG weekend sure vroom into malaysia. if for use in SG only i dont think anyone will buy a car there.
You take grab every single time you go out also cost only half of what you will pay for that car only.

looks like china ev fever hit UK liou

BYD sales in europe even kana slap with extra tariff woso is more than Teslas sales there now…

Many come JB to service

Dah cakap 8 years warranty laa, . . . . 5 years then good can get a new replacement.

Is Nissan out of business yet? Don't keep recycling old fear of 'running out of business' ...

That's why buy from BYD lo ...... who ask you blindly buy ...LOL

When robotaxis become common, there is no reason for MOST to own cars. But when the needs arise they can always make a call to lease one. SG would be the 1st in ASEAN to have these cos of ease of implementation with their systematic infrastructure.

Bht government make a lot of charging at hdb car park area

Even some stadiun outside open space have ev charging spot

EV in Malaysia expensive?

EV macam ada rebate from Singapore government, but COE still need to pay full as per market rate

You don't have any? LOL You need more than one ah?
Buy from the best laaa .... ayoyo .... didn't say must buy from one only ....LOL

Scam rebate la, when deregister the car at 10 years old later price lower than cars without the rebate

But atto there is 160k+ sgd, if coe is 95k sgd, the rest

sure not salah bengkel jb?

But when electronics break...$$$. Next time instead of go workshop, people will go Lowyat plaza to fix motherboard...soldering, replacing chips and capacitors...Lol

Sinkapoor public transport ok mah. ingatkan they buy car as a portable room to have sexy time in remote area only

First you need a landed house.
And a second car for long trip.

Ain’t gonna want to research and worry where to charge.
