The current saga is because another china MotorVehicle CEO says there is a EverGrande in the auto industry and they speculated it is BYD.
But I more concern about their self-driving ability. so many videos on youtube of failures . but failure rate statistics not available for all self-driving cars to compare whehter it is only byd problem or even telsa. how high is the failure rate.

What is the obsession everyone seem to have with self driving cars?

There was a twitter thread where folk I assume from US were arguing about which city get first and and which system would be best.

It was like a who is best at football chat

In SG, dealership close down but you still own the car right?
Insurance just buy from any providers will do, the most servicing will be an issue but I'm sure there's other 3rd party that can service the car for a price right?

if i am nissan or honda owner i wont worry if they toh because the spare parts are easily available.

also, they don't use as much electronic and software like EV, imagine EV is like a moving mobile phone,once the company toh you will run out of software update and the car will soon get Error #404 when you wake up one fine morning and power on you car.

Just hope these car don’t ever meet an accident…..cause that car will need a wide range of spare parts for repairs….Jap brand has no worry, they shared common spare parts….

Just hope some china companies will buy those oversupply new cars for “cannibalisation“ (as a source of spare parts for another, similar machine.) :ROFLMAO:
Yes.. Never under estimate the supply chains, alot of brands build along the years... Replacement parts can be cheap... Like brakes, rotor, belts, bearings and etc...

If sole distributor... Have fun paying.. Even is a lower tier car.

Buy China brand then be prepared to handle the after sales service your own. Spare parts? Nope, hope you don't need to replace any.

After sales service is not a concept in China, people there treat EV as disposable item, spoil just replace with new one

As long the car got steering wheel, drive is in charge... All are just active safety... Not many enjoy driving?

How they go for servicing and their warranty if any?
I’m sure some parts are interchangeable.

IF TESLA bankrupts or bye bye from Singapore then I dunno how Liao cos my impression is Tesla cars can only be maintained by Tesla while other EV can go to other EV workshops

Yes, why only BYD will go bankrupt but not Tesla? The thread title is misleading.
