Seriously, is BYD good?

[byfun]

dont buy car in Singapore, seriously, a real waste of money

That y many listen to u and dont buy and all go rent phv ?

 

[koster]

BYD cars are hand assembled by workers. It depends on the workmanship of that group of workers. Heng suay lah.

BYD car caught fire in Singapore. While charging the car, must hang around to monitor.

Wah how u know catch fire? News got report ah?

 

[evilduxy]

No budget for any car / non car buyer spotted

bo bian sad truth

listen to me? no lah, they can form their own opinion.

 

[koster]

Your money your call la.. most sinkies for practical reasons looked at overall costing for the 10 yrs.

If a jdm low margin sell u 200k vs a 150k car which are comparable. Will you choose a low margin or high margin car ? You wanna care about your own pocket or dealer margin ?

On top of that also need consider warranty and whole package given. If one give 10 yrs warranty n full service for 10 yrs vs a 3 yrs 50k km warranty ..etc. Not to mention resale value ..etc. Many factors that apply differently to each individuals.

If you are rich and loaded even RR also seem more value...

Fully agree. If the choice of which restaurant i go to is based on how much profit the restaurant is making then I'll be jin stressed to decide which one liao.

Should be burning in the battery compartment.

The community here certainly believes so.

Ok, means quite safe cos didnt immediately go into flame?

 

[Optrex]

Exactly. A certain 2nd hand car dealer keep saying ev no second hand value. I post on his fb asking him to find me a cheap ev to buy (amongst other things), he blocked me.

the no value he meant is when u want to sell and not the pre-owned price consumer pay. dealer don't want to take in. so they will either lowball u or just ask u do consignment lah.
ppl don't understand second hand price is not equal to price when u sell to 2nd hand dealer.... face palm really...

Just because it happened in the show room, and it was immediately cooled down by SCDF.

What if it happened in a car park, and nobody is aware of the smoke.

2. Car park fire? https://www.straitstimes.com/singap...e-than-double-in-last-5-years-no-evs-involved


The number of fires at indoor and multi-storey carparks has more than doubled over the last five years, although none of them involved electric vehicles (EVs).

The day of EV fire will surely come, just a matter of time.

Of course no doubt but in risk management risk score = probability x impact. 1350 ICE vs 25 EV fires yearly / 100000 vehicles

Rubbish.... GLA, X1/2 also damn sad one...

And I bought a sealion 6 liao.... Next month getting it.

I always believe in value for money in my purchases.... That's why I bought the stinger gt.... And now this....

I won't doubt anyone buying a byd won't say its value for money. It's destroying the market.

The kia, how much did you lose over how many years?
