Have you bought a EV yet? I hope not! It is always good to engage with the EV community on fb or your preferred social media before purchasing a EV.
It is always good to hear alternative voices about the EV options before heading for a test drive to consider your purchase.
Some groups I recommend to start asking questions and talking about your EV purchase. I’ll start by saying it is important to do a better research than I have done so I hope the links below can help you with making more informed decision when purchasing a electric car.
Do look around my blog to read about my thoughts on owning a electric car in SG in 2021. I would really recommend asking the hard questions before making a electric car purchase.
Things to note:
- Battery Type
- Charging Plug Options
- Charging Speed (Yes! Charging speed does depend on your car’s compatibility too!)
- Range ( Whether it suits your lifestyle )
- Battery Efficiency (How many Km per Kwh would it actually use)
- Chargers available near by home / office / frequently visited locations (Hint: use PlugShare to search it up)
- Motor Power (Many manufacturers decrease the motor power to increase range, Eg. BYD E6 vs The New E6)
- Driving / Passenger Comfort
