    as an aside,
    did you know that clown make-up designs are register-able?
    it's the clown egg registry.

    But you can't get a Land Cruiser at its SRP price. or try to pay the obligatory Toyota tax(Top up) for a unit that years behind in Technology.

    And that Xpeng X9 has tech way way ahead of the Land Cruiser.

    she's Trading Dependability with Advance Technology.

    Probably cheaper than comparable EVs from non-chinese brands

    Seems like it, feeling ko EVS para sa maraming pera na hindi priority ang dependability, those that don't mind risking millions and replace cars every 3 years

    Iba din feeling if you tried a car with advanced technology.
    Parang ayaw mo ng bumalik sa car if wala tong features na nasubukan mong useful.
    Before, features such Apple Carplay/AA, 360 camera, ADAS features were only available on TOTL variants.
    Once ma try mo na yan but on a non-Jap cars, maghihinayang ka nang bumili ng Jap cars na wala ang features na yan.

    Good thing, Jap cars follows suit so naging level yung playing field in terms of features offering.

    Here comes the Chinese brands and EVs, they are offering luxury features that are only available in European brands.
    I won't be surprised more buyers were entice.
    Im sure some of these buyers owned Toyota or Jap cars be it their previous cars of coding cars.
    Sa price offering ng Chinese brands, hindi ka na rin lugi sa features at premium materials pa ang interior.

    the way i see it,
    the premium EVs nowadays are status symbols.
    the so-called "because i can".

electric powered cars
