  1. There is a clear relationship between a lack of education and not understanding EVs. You don’t get EVs, that’s fine, don’t buy one. You would probably find the apps and charging thing a bit of a challenge anyway.
  2. What sort of quote was this? From over 2 years ago and not showing the car in question? Turns out he was for referring to the MG EP a car that has been superseded by the ES version and that was over a year ago so we are not talking about the latest technology.
  3. “Toyota to use BYD's plug-in hybrid tech for new models” https://www.carsguide.com.au/car-news/if-you-cant-beat-them-toyota-to-use-byds-plug-in-hybrid-tech-for-new-models-coming-in-the

  5. Price comparison for similar performance:
  6. Website: EcoHouseThailand.com YouTube: https://youtube.com/EcoHouseThailand Prices - I haven’t kept up to date as it’s been several years since the build, but they have definitely gone up quite a bit. Plans: I met with 6 architects after first sending them my detailed design criteria for the build. None of them even looked at the design criteria and I got responses like “what sort of house would you like?” Or these are houses we have plans for pick one. I asked questions about the thermal envelope and got blanks looks. Having met with a professor of architecture since then it seems that climate appropriate building design is not taught to architects here. The house sort of designed itself because I was very clear what the priorities for the build were. I knew what I wanted the house to be able to do and was prepared to sacrifice aesthetics to achieve it. Most people looking at the house will not understand it as they don’t understand the physics of passive cooling. Ambitions: 10 years ago when I first start planning the build, I knew I wanted a house designed for a changing climate. I wanted it to be able to produce more power than it consumed and be totally off-grid. I wanted as much passive cooling as was possible. I wanted water security. I wanted a productive multi rai garden. I wanted security designed in from the start. I wanted to spend money where it had the most impact on how the house functioned not how it looked. Now I don’t have a meter so no electricity bills. I have 2 EVs and an electric motor bike all powered by the home solar. One of the EVs can send power back to the house when needed from a massive 86kWh battery. I have rainwater harvesting as well as 3 solar well pumps. I have a 4,000 cubic meter pond with a solar pump to bring water to the garden and back to the house. We produce a lot of fruit and veggies as well as sweet potatoes from the garden and fish from the pond.
  7. Apologies I thought a 5 second video would play ok - it works fine for me but I have created a YouTube while walking the dogs
  8. “Why would I want an EV when my 10 year old vios does a perfectly good job” This never gets old: IMG_6837.mov
  9. That’s great value for a 50kWh car I put a deposit down on one in 2019 when it was ฿1.1m and had a 44kWh battery, half the price of the Nissan Leaf at the time. Unfortunately the company chosen by MG to install the free wall box refused to install for me as I had solar “solar no good”
  10. Getting to know some of the new cars coming to Thailand by comparison with a car we all know very well
  11. Hyundai IONIQ 5 Price reduction ฿60,000 ฿1,699,000 - ฿1,829,000 800V 72.6 kWh Charge DC 350 kW Range 481 km. (WLTP)
  12. Pete Buttigieg is always very impressive IMHO, a former naval officer who deployed to Afghanistan and a graduate of both Harvard and Oxford Universities. He was a Rhodes Scholar and graduated from Oxford with a first-class honours degree. Pete Buttigieg spoke at the Democratic National Convention. Don't bother replying to this post unless you've watched the 8 minute video first
  13. A joint venture between Changan Automobile, Huawei, and CATL
  14. A show video so at least we know what it looks like 🙂
  15. ChangAn AVATR 11 To be launched in Thailand in September 2024 Big Battery
  16. XPENG G6 vs TESLA MODEL Y
  17. XPENG G6 price revealed
  18. what has this got to do with Thailand? How many Tesla Semis have you seen in Thailand anyway? This is the discussion you should have been posting in https://aseannow.com/topic/1335967-icev-ev-fires-worldwide but you are a newbie (or a bot) and can't see it "You need a minimum of 100 posts to see this forum"
  19. The Hydrogen Highway - a road to nowhere Keep seeing comments in discussions about EVs like this: “of course the future is Hydrogen” but never anything to back it up. About the only place in the world that still has Hydrogen cars is California or more accurately just the Bay Area and Los Angeles. So what is like owning a H2 car in California? This video was published 12 hours ago and shows the current situation.
  20. XPENG G6, electric Premium SUV. Launching price in Thailand on 21 August!
  21. Electric Vehicles in THAILAND! Back to ignoring your posts
  22. Just a Google translate of the autolifethailand post on FB ขุมพลัง is probably better translated as power than powerful Powertrain Power not "Powertrain is powerful"
