Bandersnatch

My understanding is that with one pedal, you never have to touch the brake, all regen comes from lifting off the accelerator pedal. With BYD some of the regen comes from lifting off, the rest comes from the initial depression on the break pedal before pushing down further to engage the friction breaking.

MG made it clear to me that if I installed the free wall box myself or fitted any other wall box apart from the supplied MG wall box it would invalidate the warranty on the car. They had outsourced the installation of the wall box to a company that knew nothing about solar or EVs.

Just put down ฿10,000 deposit on a BYD Seal Premium (Long Range RWD) in White. This was after making it very clear that I wanted to charge the car from Solar or the deal was off. Most here probably know that I put down a deposit on an MG ZS EV in 2019 as soon as they were released in Thailand. The wall box install team selected by MG refused to install as I had solar “solar no good”. 2 years later after involving the president of MG Thailand I finally got to power an MG from my home solar system. Don’t want to go through that again.

During the test drive she that the seal had a dash cam but today she said “ไม่มีค่ะ ลูกค้าต้องติดตั้งเองค่ะ มีกล้องบันทึก เฉพาะ ATT03 ค่ะ“ Not have Customers must install it themselves. There is a recording camera, only ATT03 ????

I am not sure if you saw the posts above about adjusting regen levels? On my test drive, the BYD girl didn’t know how to adjust regen. My Regen was set to std and it was certainly was not one pedal. I could see the power meter go negative kW as I lifted off.

This is a good video from TiY a Thai living in China who used English subs: Screen Shots:

OK will ask the girl today. Just for information, when I ordered my 2 MG EVs both times I was told “cannot fit any after-market electronic devices as this an electric car. Can only use devices that fit into USB/cigarette lighter power supply not wired into the car” Had to sign a paper to that effect. I ordered a MG branded dashcam from the dealer and they wired it in for me

Asked the girl during the test drive and she said yes it had a dash-cam but I will try and follow up with her - we have left her a bunch of Qs she couldn’t answer.

Good point. Normally EVs are more expensive here. Be interesting to see the BYD Seal price in Australia when it’s announced next month. Tesla model 3 was much more expensive here than in Australia

Price of the BYD Seal in Thailand v Europe. So much cheaper here.

No button in the Seal, have to use the screen. You can see your regen level at the top of the driver’s display (#3)

Old cloth ears here probably wouldn’t have heard it anyway, but the AVAS might have been switched off in my demo car.

Thanks for posting an English version- made much more sense than the Thai news source I found.

Latest gossip on BYD Seal Finance

Sorry to hear that your ordered model isn’t available. I noticed that as well. Did you work out how to change regen levels? It wasn’t obvious and the girl knew less about the car than I did.

They have stock

Still at BYD - any questions for staff here?

I am at Buriram BYD just test drove the premium @ 5.9 secs 0-100 plenty fast enough. Love the cooled and ventilated seats. Didn’t notice the glass roof being too hot. “Hi BYD - increase fan speed” worked first time. The sales girl was very impressed. MG is in Thai! I didn’t like the blue interior I saw at the BKK show, the black with white stitching looks classy. HUD is great. Drives great very impressed want to buy one. Like the way the driver seat move back when you open the door. White colour really sparkles and unlike Tesla it doesn’t cost an extra 50,000 Baht Prices released at 6pm today Tesla Model 3 owner turned up to do a trade in
