Can't remember now... vaguely remember got one model it had a purple plastic box or stickers and another had a blue one... the Autobacs I used was the one in Bukit Batok which had a Philips chart on the wall showing the whole range of headlamp bulbs... can check out below... I avoided the extra bright ones cos may not pass LTA standard... https://www.philips.com.sg/c-m-au/car-lights/headlight-bulbs/halogen Edited June 16 by teomingern ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is that if there is fingerprint/oil on the glass, there will be heat concentration causing premature failure. Not sure about that... I don't know what the failure mechanism is like if you leave fingerprints on the glass of the headlamp bulb... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
teomingern 6th Gear June 16 Share June 16 Now Hyundai doesn't sell the ICE model for the Avante anymore... the hybrid model is a completely ridiculous $170,000... no wonder Hyundai is not selling any cars... any longer, I wonder how they'll survive... sale of electric or hybrid cars can't cover the loss of ICE sales in Singapore... even secondhand Avante registered last year (probably last batch of ICE models) cost upwards of $135,000...

Seems like Hyundai is now selling EV and hybrid cars. Esp the EV, hyundai seems like have the most different model of EVs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't that what the govt want? Go "green" but use their mouth to say only but policy didnt help but more AD will still bring in hybrid and EV and detuned to CAT A. Anything that is environmentally friendly cost even more in Singapore as compared to ICE cars which is a slap in the face when other nations are really coming out with incentives to push sales towards hybrid and EV to reduce sales of ICE cars. Here doing the opposite but policy stick with 2030 yet nothing is done, govt even reduce the VES rebate instead of maintaining or increase to push for the 2030 green policy.

Tianmo Hypersonic June 27 Share June 27 When nobody drives, and everyone takes public transportation, aka car lite, it is 50% green. Making every public transportation go EV is another 50% green. Add the 2 up, is siang green liao. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More green on transportation meaning less road usage and can remove for more concrete jungle expansion! 😆 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can the public transport handed the 50% load from car-lite when it already so packed compared to the early 2010? More and more people in this small island. Nice on the outside, rotten from the inside. Is the public infrastructure able to handle the EV load of the other 50% from generating the power to charge to fire safely to charging availability? I don’t think so as of now. Edited June 27 by Fellows Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's starting... all trains are electric... now for buses to go electric... they test until don't know when, but still no news cos it's obviously not feasible for heavy vehicles like buses...

It won't work out especially when we are sourcing 'green' electricity from our neighbours... that supply isn't going to be the most reliable... and we're going to be held hostage by our neighbours when things don't go their way...

Buses will be changed gradually as and when it reached statutory age. Since SZ is full of electric buses, i don't see why not here. Except mindset.

Ole buses will be phased out as and when it is time. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
