No one wants used EVs, making new ones a tougher sell too

Get from LTA la

From Jan - Nov, there are 19k vehicle registered.  BYD 2.5k + Tesla 1.1k.

Not a lot la

It was 20.5% in November 24, 18.1% in 2023 and 11.7% in 2022. Think full year should be around 20%.

@inlinesix i must have been doing selective sighting, somehow like seeing BYD everywhere

Not surprising.

Even at 10,000 km a year. The maths is still not negative for EV.

Ron95 at $2.88 per litre. Nett of 20% discount = $2.30 per litre.

Assuming 10,000km a year and FC of 10km/l, you pay $2,300 in petrol.  

Road tax for 1.6L ICE = $744

Annual cost for 1.6L ICE: $3044

 

BYD Atto 3 FC = 6.25km/ Kwh

Electricity at $0.65kwh

Annual charging cost for 10,000 km = $1040

Road tax for Atto 3 EV = $1795

Annual cost for Atto 3 = $2,835.

Think EV operating cost about there with mass market ICE even for low mileage owners (average is 17,500km) or I am missing something here?

Dont forget the ice maintenance cost also. Plus if have own charging point, ev operating cost will be even lower

Awesome ANALysis… but to me the math is crystal clear and  esp the time factor

 

ya u missing the 50% gang and the 5k km tyres intangible fear factor… like squid game kind😂

Yes you missed out something. Insurance.

EV car insurance are much more expensive.

Think 15000km a year and you take back everything.

To add, BYD's 7.3s century sprint vs Altis' 11.8s is worth at least $2k a year to me.  Haha...
