Its not selling in malaysia, can one buy and import it to drive in Malaysia? How about if there is service needed?
I have the exact same model (only I didn't opt for the white seats). We have only had it for a month but we did 5,000 km in it already. I agree with everything except that autopilot is good. In my experience autopilot is rubbish and completely useless here in Europe. Even dangerous. It will do a lot of emergency braking where there is no emergency in sight for example. My worst scare was on the German Autobahn when I was going quite fast and it read a 50 km/h sign on an exit (that I wasn't going to take) and it suddenly slammed the brakes. Even when you disable autopilot and just use the more basic cruise control it still performs some of these random nuisances. So I have completely stopped using the autopilot and I only use cruise control on the motorway when there is no traffic or I'm in a slow moving queve (since in that particular situation it quite nicely follows the traffic automatically so that is at least useful). In more complex traffic or on any road with the possibility of oncoming traffic I have to drive fully manually in order to avoid random braking etc. which is really annoying. I actually really miss the "dumb" cruise control I have in my 2014 Model S. It's kind of sad that Tesla has spent billions developing fancy self driving capabilities and all I wish for is to be able to turn everything off. But that's the reality. I also wish they had kept the indicator stalk. You can get used to buttons but they are just less intuitive and less safe. Period. I sometimes still have trouble pressing the button when I'm exiting a roundabout and I have to find it while I'm turning the wheel at the same time (and we have many roundabouts in my country). But what I really like is the stereo, the interior, the ride comfort and the efficiency. The navigation and the cameras are also really good. So is a lot of the other software.

@078percent44 күн бұрын
There are, but they are currently at the bottom of the list of Chinese EVs. The car with the highest level of autopilot in China is Huawei's Aito M9 (which is close in price to the Mercedes-Benz E-Class), which does the whole thing without a human taking over (but is required by law to sit in the driver's seat), and is the highest selling premium car in China every month, and is an absolute dominant player in the premium market, similar to Mercedes-Benz's position. By the way, byd is the dominant player in China's low and mid-range market, similar to Toyota.

@hanmeng483321 сағат бұрын
❤ thanks. Plus its reliability and keeping our air clean on our roads, in city areas, in housing estates as well as in carparks. I switched to ev for the sake of our environment and the earth. Never-mind about falling in value, in spite of the discipline needed to charge it, intend to use it for ten years. In most enclosed carparks (including the new shopping malls) the air there is full of car exhaust and hot. Not good for anyone working in the carpark. Surely there are people working in car parks. My sympathy goes to them. If visitors with kids take time to find their parked cars, they will also bear the brunt of the situation there. Even in older HDB estates with many ground level flats, and open air car park next to their living rooms, the residents (many not owning cars), would wish more car owners switching to ev, we can see more and more ev chargers being installed there even though many residents themselves are not car owners. Thanks to SP which installs the chargers. Hope SP can also reduce the price of charging. $0.64 per kWh for ac, is a bit too stiff to encourage more people to embrace green energy car. Save our environment and save our earth.

Some personal discipline is needed. I have gotten used to it now. A nice reliable car. For people where there are ev chargers in their carparks, slow AC chargers are ok. Charge the car regularly near home after work. Discipline to vacate the charging lot to be considerate to others. The charger app is helpful. HDB dwellers in the ground floor would love ev owners. Love SP. ❤

Isn’t it EV has better range in city driving compared to highway? Do frequent start-stop reduce its range alot? It would also be great to interview owners their experience, especially from PHV point of view. 👍🏼
@s4shamus5 күн бұрын
Yes, I own an Atto 3 and can confirm that in city driving you get better range due to regenerative braking where a certain amount power is restored to the battery each time you brake. This applies to all EVs and I would assume PHEVs too.
@hanmeng483321 сағат бұрын
I think stop start is more an issue with ice cars where stop/start consumes more energy burning more fossil fuel other than acceleration. Whereas Ev with electric motor starts instantly, only some extra energy for acceleration is needed which may be somewhat compensated through regeneration.

@CalvinK-the_old_fogey5 күн бұрын
@@lanlantulan COE quota depends on the average de-registration of the past 12 months. Government never force you to de-register, it’s the consumer’s behaviour. The bidding price is dependent on car traders’ behaviour and buyers’ desperation, not government again. Government only determines the growth of vehicles and it is a long-term policy to be car-lite. So if you think about it, you should blame car buyers and not government. 😂

ARF? You mean PARF is zero. Can always buy an ICE car and pay ARF upfront and get back 50% of it after 10 years and compare the overall cost of the car. Don’t forget to discount NPV of the ARF you pay upfront. EV has pays discounted ARF (in many cases zero since OMV is less than $25k, which is the rebate limit) hence PARF is zero.
This is a selling like hot cake at SG because you can always use this pick up line with this car….i have g-strings in my car, would you like to try them out ? 🤣😂🤣
