You want a drill if you don't want the noise.

I was really keen on the G9 for a family hauler, as we always pack our Mazda 6 to the roof. We've always had coloured cars. The australian…

This style design has a great drag coefficient, which provides much longer range(due to lower energy useage) at freeway speeds.

EV3 is a fantastic EV platform. Good choice!

LuckyDealer on I Am in The Market for a PHEV Hybrid under $40K, I Have Almost 250km Run Each Day - 5 Days a Week. Looking for Options

BYD Atto 3 Range 345km, or 420km. At highway speed, would be 20% less. If you're after a smaller SUV, the Kia EV3 is on a new platform and…

LuckyDealer on I Am in The Market for a PHEV Hybrid under $40K, I Have Almost 250km Run Each Day - 5 Days a Week. Looking for Options

To cover 600km in one day is about 8 hours driving, not including any rest breaks. I'm sure you could stop for 10-20 minutes to go to the…

This, considering OP budget, they would be better off buying 2nd hand EV. Get a minimum 350-400km range, as it'll be a bit less when you…

FerreroRocher on [Pre Order] Zeekr 7X RWD + Premium Paint + 7kW Charger + Type 2 Charging Cable from $57,900 + On-Road Cost @ Zeekr Australia

But is that due to your car state of charge, temperature and charging curve?

I'm in the same boat, but with a 2.5 and 4 year old. I'm super keen on the long range RWD but the lack of sun shades is upsetting. I wonder…

WhyAmICommenting on What Is The Cheapest EV That Can Reliably Do Minimum ~400km Highway Driving

Yes. COd(drag coefficient ) is very important at highway speeds, as the force due to wind increases at a squared rate.

BYD is pushing discounts on novated leases. They're just competing with the market.

Does it work with standard TV software, or do i need to buy a pc or some other interface ?

hothed commented on Netflix Turkey Account Suddenly Got Restarted
My account got closed also. Had about 6 months worth of prepayment in there. =(

Check the energy useage at freeway speeds. Different car designs use more/less. Tesla are very efficient at higher speeds due to their…

Where an EV shines is instant power off the line and not having to wait for gear changes to provide power. The 0-40 or 0-60km/ph time is…

I travel from Ballarat to Melbourne about once a month in my EV, which is a standard range Hyundai Kona(2024). No issues going traveling to…

Carnivals hold their value like crazy. Very different to a grey import.

Resale value??

Until they buy something... That is what GST captures.

hothed commented on Would You Support Lower Income Tax, Increase GST?
I support higher GST. It captures more of the "black market" income that is currently not taxed. The same objects should still remain…

Stay there forever until they kick you out. You should be saving heaps of cash.

If you have 0 assets at 30, on 145k wage, you have a much bigger spending problem to resolve first. On that wage, as a single, you'll need…

Price is too high for the size.

DealBreaker85 on Zeekr X AWD $3,500 Factory Bonus (Now Approx $65,000 Driveaway), Free Home Charger & 12 Months Free Charging @ Zeekr

Some of the larger companies have a "corporate deal" where you get free servicing if you work at large employer.

Kapiti one of my favourites, along with the expensive bulla icecream in the 1l tubs.
