It may not have been an EV. The MG EP+ is a bit boat like, great for passengers on a long journey, but not a driver’s car to hurry along twisty roads. I think there is a big difference in cars that are engineered for battery technology, rather than ICE cars that have been converted to BEV.

Neta now have a showroom in Chiang Rai town. I popped in with my sister and brother-in-law last week, and we were all very impressed with the car.

All hail the mighty EV, Grant me everlasting recharges, The volts to smite mine enemies, The amps to melt their ICE, The watts and wherefore‘s notwithstanding, Strike down those ICE’ers with thy mighty power Amen!

You are absolutely right, when we have found the right spell, we will all be riding around on Magic carpets

Hydrogen as a fuel will always cost about 3 times more than electricity over the same distance. I can see Hydrogen vehicles being offered as an alternative and poor substitute for BEV’s. Market economics, supply and demand will take care of the rest.

Every EV I have driven handle really well and typically better than ICE cars. Very little body roll because of a lower center of gravity and many around 50/50 weight distribution and 4WD.

Am I the only one who thinks this poster might like Pontiac’s?

Always happy to help someone with an open mind

I think this whole thread is either clickbait or one of our regular anti-EV’ers attempting to troll us.

Everything already addressed including your points…many times

Battery longevity has already been addressed elsewhere, many times. As I’m sure you’re aware if you have a really read all the EV posts. I’m not going to repeat them again, go and read the other threads, you’re just rehashing old posts.

Every point in the OP has beed addresses at least more than once. So has the issue of fires you raised, that’s been addressed to you on multiple occasions. So has your living 65km away from a charging station, you’ve already been told you don’t need any within 150km and why. You don’t need to upgrade your meter, you can even charge on a 5/15A meter, overnight will replace most if not all your use the day before. I myself charge overnight at 10amp when needed, my PEA supply is very weak. I am not going to play this game of repeating answers to the same old Luddites who regurgitate the same old ill informed points.

The motors run on 3 phase AC so a lot more than 2 terminals, but all fully sealed.

Batteries are waterproof, you can drive through a flood, but I wouldn’t recommend leaving it parked in one

Funny how nobody with an EV seems to agree with the OP it must be nice to be blissfully ignorant

Very balanced opinion - NOT

My sister and bil accompanied me to DaNang from Thailand, no visa, just rocked up, they are Australian but left Thailand on Australian passport and used British passport to enter Viet Nam. They were questioned at Check In when they mistakenly presented Australian passports.

Sorry, I haven’t.

Yes Croddy is right. I have brought in 2 of 40’ containers from China. Not only can you have duties and taxes to pay, but customs are a law unto themselves. If you upset them, expect to be asked to produce your import license.

I have sold through Lazada, they don’t give me a choice of which company to ship through, they do give me the address of the buyer, which I think is a mistake as it enables COD scams.

My room is 4m x 3m, no windows, I have a 9,000 BTU air con unit running 24/7. I have 3 grid-tied inverters and 3 hybrid inverters with LFP ESS, 2 Computer servers with 44 disks in them, also all the controller electronics for the elevator and it’s racked for wine with a few hundred bottles. Just make sure there are no electronic items under your A/C unit and have it professionally cleaned every 4-6 months (or when it leaks).

Yes 45 days I think, actually they wrote 22/11/25 so an error I think

No offence taken

I arrived Da Nang on Monday, no visa required as British. Will return again on 25th with my daughters (Thai, no visa required).

I am a member too.
