Excise Dept Asked to Extend Electric Car Incentives

Bizarre comparing petrol stations that have been around for 100 years with hydrogen stations that are opening recently for example in the uk In 2011 the first public hydrogen station opened in Swindon also in the UK UK's first all-electric car charging forecourt opens in Essex 2020 https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/dec/07/uk-first-all-electric-car-charging-forecourt-opens-in-essex -

Taking the Lead in Hydrogen Fueling Stations In response to the logistics industry's ongoing efforts to reduce emissions, BIG has taken the lead in establishing hydrogen fueling stations. In collaboration with PTT Plc. and Toyota Motor Thailand Co., Ltd., they have inaugurated the first hydrogen fueling station for Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs) in Bang Lamung District, Chonburi Province, Thailand. https://www.nationthailand.com/pr-news/more/pr-news/40029156 -

At the end of 2022, we recorded 455 hydrogen stations operating in Asia, thereof 165 in Japan and 149 in South Korea. The number of hydrogen stations in China is estimated at 138, You can now fill up with hydrogen in 37 countries, Columbia, Cyprus, and Israel being the latest additions to the list. https://hydrogen-central.com/another-record-addition-european-hydrogen-refuelling-stations-2022-tuv-sud/# Seems the number of hydrogen stations is expanding each year -
Many people have purchased cars from dealers and found out later that the dealer has provided them with fake red plates https://www.thairath.co.th/tags/ป้ายแดงปลอม There is a case going through the courts where a dealer sold 34 cars and owners have requested white plates and after 2 years still have no white plates https://www.khaosod.co.th/breaking-news/news_7475848

I have come across people that have the white plates at home but choose to keep the red plates on yes they don't get their plate deposit back from the dealer but for some people red plates are a status symbol that they don't want to give up

MG EP and MG ES from a commercial sales point of view are aimed at different markets if you have an employee that requires a company car to carry stock or equipment before MG EP choices were limited storage space wise pickup with lockable slider or pickup with carryboy MG see the EP as providing a vehicle that is affordable without the toys and the ES for anyone that wants the same storage space with the toys

None at the moment Looking at ev at the moment but think there will be future developments over the next 3 years its a case of when is the best time to buy I personally believe the market will be split into 2 ranges Range 1 vehicles with a range of 900 km and under B1,500,000 Range 2 vehicles with a range exceeding 900km and with a price tag exceeding B1,500,000 I don't think the range exceeding 900km will ever drop below B1,000,000

I think most of the MG owners on this forum are wearing rose tinted glasses I know you weren't aware of the water getting into the battery on 1st generation MG ZS EV until it was pointed out to you and you research the issue in the MG facebook groups. I think potential brake failure is a concern for everyone both MG and non MG owners Here are a few recalls notices for just this year MG HS PHEV & MG HS +EV - Plug-in Hybrid Electric medium SUV Due to a manufacturing defect, the carpet underlay may be positioned between the nut and the electrical ground stud. If the nut loosens overtime due to vibrations whilst driving, it could cause the wiring beneath the floor to overheat and it may result in a fire inside the vehicle. https://www.vehiclerecalls.gov.au/recalls/rec-005652 SAIC Volkswagen recalls over 83,000 vehicles in China https://www.shanghai.gov.cn/nw48081/20230811/807f58438244460486fa425db7b4077f.html#

It seems to me that you didn't do extensive research as you would have known about the brake failure issue here another example MG ZS EV 2021 brakes not working Discussion Hi, had my MG ZS EV for just over a year now (bought June 2021) in the past 3 months it's suffered from the brakes not working twice. I've written a more detailed post on the MG community forum. https://www.mgevs.com/threads/high-speed-brake-fail-ghost-braking.6633/ My post here is to spread awareness of this problem and to see if anyone else has had similar issues with their car, especially if it's from new around the same time as ours as I'd like to get a report to MG for a potentially faulty batch of cars as no brakes is a very serious fault!

@transam@KhunLAMaybe the forum resident MG experts would like to comment as it would appear Brake failure has happened in the past Here an report from September 2021 MG’s first official response was to blame the presence of a dash cam in the car and that this somehow caused the issue. They refused to both look at the dash cam footage or inspect the car. The repairs won’t investigate the braking system as their mandate comes from the insurance and not the manufactures and the insurance won’t intervene or investigate. https://www.mgevs.com/threads/brakes-failed.3473/

My electric car malfunctioned and brakes stopped working – I had to crash into a police van, it was terrifying A TERRIFIED electric car driver has told how he was forced to crash his motor into police to stop the runaway vehicle after the brakes stopped working. Brian Morrison, 54, says he’s lucky to have avoided serious tragedy after his six-month-old electric motor malfunctioned on his drive home from work on Sunday night. https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/motors/11320530/electric-vehicle-car-brakes-malfunction-glasgow-police/

The same applies for the atto3 with a freebie value of over B180,000 someone paying cash instead of 30% down and 4 years of installments their total freebie value is devalued by B63,162 unless the manufacturer provides a similar amount as a cash discount which most manufacturers don't normally it worth pushing the dealer for extra equipment which has 2 values the retail value that they sell for and the trade value that they buy https://www.reverautomotive.com/rever-care
-
Anyone thinkin about paying in cash doesn't get the full B230,000 freebies as within the B230,000 is the 1.8 interest rate for 4 years for cash buyers the freebies in reduced to B153,740 B76,260 difference compared to someone that pays the 30% down payment and takes finance over 48 months

Lottery Chaos: Couple With Winning Number Fails To Get 30 Million Baht
vinny41 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The shop then took a photo of the lottery ticket to confirm. and immediately made 2 calls to customers because it was the first time trading To confirm buying-selling but unable to contact So I asked the customer: “Can I contact you at the number you gave me?” But there was no reply that day. As the seller had never dealt with the buyer before and the buyer was asking for cash on delivery seller tried contacting buyer to confirm if real or not but buyer didn't return call -

Not sure if the Byd camera is sufficient to meet insurance discount as there is no sound or rear camera personally I don't think the Byd camera should be called a dash cam because clearly it isn't

Byd offical name is vehicle travelling data recorder no sound
