i think there's a need (without name-calling) for a new topic: how to calculate the correct number of bev's ...

ask your in-laws if someone in their area has an ev and a wall charger. maybe they'd be willing to let you charge your car if it's really necessary ...

good morning vinny41 i think most of us wouldn't see this small inconsistencies in the percentage as a problem ... it might be worth trying (at least for once) to just leave a number as it is and let it be ... thank you. wish you and eveyone a nice weekend

so in your opinion everyone who stops on a road is the most dangerous user? before i stop, i also check the back mirror, i do of course not an emergency stop ... and i think we are talking about city traffic ... i think, over 20 years on thai roads without any accidents show's that my driving style seems to be ok ... to be honest, in a few situations i was also lucky nothing happen ...

it depends on the situation. if there’s only one lane in my direction, i do stop, but at least 10 meters before the zebra crossing, and i give a hand signal for them to cross (my car windows don’t have any tint or film protection.) i try to do the same when a motorcycle stands in a dangerous position in the middle of the road to make a right turn ... i am aware that this can sometimes lead to dangerous situations, but pedestrians trying to squeeze through moving traffic is not a better solution either. fortunately, in my 20 years in thailand, i’ve never been involved in an accident ...

that's a really good one ...

i recently completed my 1 year permit (retirement) at immigration. all my papers and documents were complete and in order (they carefully checked everything before i was even given a counter number). but the officer in charge handed me five additional forms to fill out and sign, checked all documents twice for safety, and stamped about 50 times all the document!!! the whole process for my simple 1 year permit (i didn’t have to answer a single question) at the counter took around 20 minutes ... a process that could easily be completed in under 5 minutes! all government offices, banks, immigration, etc., in thailand love to make things as complicated and time-consuming as possible. an extra tax certificate would probably make the immigration officers even happier ... they’d have one more reason to make life difficult for us...

i agree with that! the advertised ranges are hard to achieve. only with disciplined driving, not too fast, no hills, the right temperature, no rain, etc. but on the other hand, it's quite similar to the fuel consumption estimates for ice cars ... they're also hard to reach with normal driving ...

many new buyers choose a plug-in hybrid car, cause it's easier for long road trips. however, when asked how many long trips (over 400 km) they actually take, it turns out this only happens a few times a year. in my opinion, for those occasional long trips, you can easily charge during breaks without losing much extra time. after all, long road trips aren’t (at least for me) meant to be races! i think, buying a phev instead of a pure bev just for a few long trips doesn’t really make sense. keep in mind, with a phev, you get both the benefits and the drawbacks of both the ice and electric car worlds ...

what is the reason for stopping export to pea? did you get a digital meter?

numerous studies and data from trustworthy sources have proven that electric cars catch fire less frequently than internal combustion engine (ice) vehicles. this fact has been discussed extensively on this forum, and you're not the first to repeatedly question it without some serious research ... there's a dedicated topic specifically for ev fires where you can find more detailed information on this subject. please use that thread to support your claim. thanks a lot! https://aseannow.com/topic/1335967-icev-ev-fires-worldwide/#comment-19323800

did I read that right, 3'480 usd per month??? that would be 41,760 usd per year ...

i wonder where the unknown comes from; perhaps it's from people who don't know much about the tax situation ... however, i do agree with you "anything could happen" ... but "nothing at all" i think is more unlikley ...

@ all DUI is driving under influence (DUI) in thailand also considered a criminal offense? does that mean i can call (you) those people criminals? by the way, when i was 16, a good friend of mine was killed by a drunk driver ...

OR ... What happens for you or me today, may not happen for either to all of us -- and anyone else -- tomorrow or the next day or next week or in a few years ...

as sad as it is, at least he didn't kill some innocent people because of his speeding ...

at least in pricey 5 star hotel "the guest should be the king " ... and not educated like a child ...

seriously, what's wrong with you ...

wishing you all the best and a smooth recovery ... thank you for the positive report. even though i have health insurance, my first choice has always been the government hospital, especially for emergencies ...

they should ask "fatty" to lead the watch investigation ...

the new byd seal 2025 has arrived at dealers in china ... the big question is, when will the seal 2025 come to thailand?
