Hybrids and EV

[dr. d]

Use run flat tires nalang if no space for a spare tire.

it comes daw, with a tyre repair kit. it includes some sealant substance, and an air compressor to push the sealant compound in, as it pushes air into the tyre.
"if 26 psi is not attained within 10 minutes, turn off the compressor and call for roadside assistance."

uy! anong horas!
mag-EB tayo!

actually,
because of diesel's unfavorable price vis a vis unleaded,
and because my muscles and bones are not as healthy as yesterdecades ago,
i now drive the altis as my daily.
and once i get rid of the fungus in the neglected wigo,
mag-wi-wigo na ako as my coding car, and semi-retire the innova.

so kkags!
mag-suot ako ng green sport shirt and original stan smith.
ano kulay mo?

na-a-aliw ako sa ice cream. half price ng dolphin.
my daily route is 5.5 km only, thru city streets.

tingnan ko doc kung mnakahabol ako bukas kasi mas type ko punta ng pasay south pag linggo sana. Dapat sinagad na nila EV expo hangang linggo.

the last time nag mall of asia ako year 2014 or 2015 pa ata

i went over rumble strips when i test drove the Kicks. car felt like it was being jackhammered so NVH will even be a lot worse if you use run flat tires. btw those same rumble strips are pretty much silent when i drive over them on the ecosport (albeit w/ oversized tires)

[KKagalingan]

1.4m nalang ang byd dolphin. saw one at landers a few weeks ago. it's kinda small.

any takers?

ito yung sinasabi ko na pag bumagska ng 1.4milyones byd dolphin gaganda na labanan.

Si MG may nagpost nasa ganyan price range din.

gumaganda labanan kasi mathreaten na sa pricing ang diesel at gas engine.

ako pakikiramdaman ko labanan dahil next bili ko electric na.

Kung napa-aga change ng pricing eh baka hindi na bumili ng HRV

[carxynogen]

However, the new P1.4M MG 4 EV is looking like a better buy: less moving parts and a newer, more modern design.

MG 4 EV review: it shouldn’t be this good | CAR Magazine

Etong less moving parts characteristics ng EV, ano nalang ba yung pinapa PMS nito?
And ilang interval needed ng PMS?

[yapoy86]

meron din yan gear oil, brake fluid... some have battery coolant din

Ito yung pinakaneed upgrade ng Kicks nga kung meron man paraan sila mahanap.

Maliban sa limited na lang ang gap for suspension travel betwen wheelarch and tire diameter, manipis lang din sidewall kaya wala masyadong cushioning makukuha sa gulong talaga.
Kung bearable for the owner, then well and good. But isa din ito sa pinaka napansin ko sa Kicks ng kaibigan ko. Normal na sa kanya naman plus enjoy sa FC savings. So benefits outweight the negative kung may napansin. hehe!

yeah NVH really isn't that bad. but lack of spare tire is a deal breaker

here's a US ecosport driver who's been missing for 2 weeks i think. wala kasing spare tire ang US ecosport apparently she got flat then started walking to get help

some months ago, i saw this video of a tesla owner whose car had died of power, asking for a ride to the gas station.
he needed gas to run the portable generator he lugs along, to charge his car so's he can go home.
heh heh.

battery charge is the same as having fuel. if you dont check or be attentive of your fuel guage mawawalang ka rin ng fuel whether it be gas, Diesel or Battery. The one saving grace of EV is that most comes with mobile chargers and our electrical infrastructure is Level 2 and you can try to look for the nearest outlet and ask the owners to use the plug. so kailagan mo ng back up extension cord.

talked to the Nissan Service Advisor before with regards to the Leaf.
yearly PMS. They just check the tires, brakes, brake fluid, other fluids. Replace filters if needed.
The brakes daw usually last longer due to regenerative braking. Tires is the one that seem to easily get replaced due to weight of EV's.

With the MG Marvel R, there is a PMS indicator in the dash.
PMS is done every 25tkm. And they mostly just check the fluids and filters if need replacements.
way cheaper than ICE models.

25k ang mileage recommended pero baka i force pa rin buyers to stick to 6 mos or 1 yr if 25k cannot be reached.
Else, paso warranty if hindi mag follow.
Hopefully, mileage lang needed nila for the next PMS visit.

read it somewhere that EV tires need to be replaced 30% more often than ICE tires because they are typically heavier and have more torque.

ako naman, doing homework on EVs since my car is turning 5 this year...

a lot of EV's parts must be replaced as a "module," di pwedeng specific part lang na sira ang papalitan.
2nd issue is that since an EV is more expensive... insurance premium is also higher.

[KKagalingan]

nabasa nyo yung post sa facebook na naka wuling tapos nakapunta ng baguio? BAle yung wuling pang 300kms ang battery. Tapos nag charge daw sa tplex.

imagine simple electric car yakang-yaka na baguio

obviously,
the manufacturer hasn't yet gone face to face with the filipino mechanic-entrepreneur.
heh heh.

[Vodka]

takers? catl battery daw. very reputable battery maker. i wouldn't hesitate to buy a catl. i got over a hundred of their cells from more than 10yrs ago, still doing very well

btw the local kia stonic is made by dongfeng in china

ganon din ako kaso with the EVs infrastructure sa ngayon lalo na sa probinsya, medyo having 2nd thoughts pa rin.
bihira pa rin yung EV cars that can stretch their range up to 600kms without charging. malamang hybrid muna ang next car as oppose to getting EV kaso konti rin lang ang options sa ngayon para sa midsize SUV.

[boybi]

With the EV infra (or lack thereof) here in PH, EVs should not be your only car. Pang 2nd car lang for your daily use. Then you should have another car for out of town trips na hindi kayang abutin ng EV.

1st time ko makakita ng Kia EV6 yesterday. Ganda talaga. Lumipat ako lane para lang mauna siya and makita ko yung side and rear. A lot of people like Hyundai Ioniq 5 more pero design-wise, prefer ko EV6.

Dumadami na talaga EVs sa Pilipinas. Sa mga global brands, mga nakita ko na sa roads are:

Kia EV6
Hyundai Ioniq 5
Volkswagen ID4
Audio e-tron GT
Audi e-tron
Tesla Model 3, S, Y and X

I think I also saw Porsche Taycan pero di ako sure kung Taycan talaga. Hehe

Pero for regular folks, Chinese EVs ang best option sa sobrang mahal ng non-Chineses EVs.

even a 660cc suzuki every van can climb baguio with ease
