Overtaking on expressways is much easier despite lacking in hp

Are you using DFSK?
So far, I have not fully loaded it.

200km is about there

When EV car makers are making all EV models as slippery as possible to the wind and lighten the car to squeeze out the mileage...

The utilitarian shape and weight of goods and buses goes against all that...

Then need to lower the van and put more wax to improve the aerodynamic.

If it was you, and your young daughter in the situation, what do you think you would have done?

Of course side watchers will have all the " should have", like call the Tesla service center, google for solutions, and what have you, but with an old woman, I don't know. 

The report stated she was left with no other option, but no mention of what she did before calling in the firefighters. 

"Left with no other option, Ms Sanchez called the local fire department for help. Firefighters used an axe to break the car’s window before climbing through to pull the toddler out."

So well, if breaking the glass was my best option, I break, with or without the firefighters. [laugh][laugh][laugh]

 

I won't buy a car with unnecessary features that make simple things complicated and add costs and more points of potential failure and reliability issues. 

A mechanical door handle works perfectly even in a nuclear war.

Getting an EV already means a whole lot more gadgets.. very different from a typical NA car like a Corolla... so even my MIL was impressed by the features list on the BYD, but I reminded her that these will need help if they breakdown, freeze etc

No need. Just take a sledge hammer or bowling ball to improve the aero. Proven by myth busters!

Unless you continue with your COE car

Use hammering is even more creative then Mythbusters !   No weight increase. 👍
