This PV5 is something I will seriously consider if it is available over here. Its 5 seater variant such as the one showcased in the video below should cost below $250k and appeal to those who want a spacious utilitarian vehicle. Now i know it comes with Utility mode aka Camp mode so it can turn on aircon the whole night.

 

Any EV car can turn on aircon whole day and night. The best part is it consumed 1% per hr. So just make sure u have enough juice to cover the whole night.

Yes but only if the car has camping mode or equivalent. Alas the ID Buzz and Cargo variant does not come with this mode and aircon can be turned on only if detected someone sitting on driver seat. I have come across videos from Taiwan that tried to bypass this restriction, but seems max can hv aircon for 30min after which the car will shutdown. I never do further test so far. From dashboard information, my ID Buzz Cargo actually consumes only 1 to 1.3KW/hr when idling with radio and aircon turned on so can operate for about a few days with its 79KW battery theoretically.

I know BYD cars default comes with this feature so can be used for camping comfortably.

Recently came across a short video that showed a driver giving voice control to turn off the reading lights in the car while on the highway, but the car turned off all the lights instead resulting in a crash. Had thought this was a joke but turned out to be a real accident. The driver has no time to react as there is no mechanical control sticks unlike conventional cars, and the car cannot react to new command to turn back the lights. 

This kind of accidents would not happen over here as our streets are well lit most of the time. But if you intend to drive your EV in Malaysia then better take note as their highways do not have street lights once out of major towns. So this kind of accidents is real.

 

Tesla cars are safe btw.

If i didn't need a 5+2, i would get the seal 6. I like it. It's a simple functional compact sedan.
I like the look of it when it's on the road and it's priced at 160+k.
