I hope Tesla is giving good prices not just to break market, but with the aim to conquer the market.

Else will become just like another VW. Don't see their prices as being competitive despite them cutting out the middle man.

Currently, it is the only car that has no margin.

Who said EV rebates will make them cheaper. All got eaten up by the ADs. Waiting for Model Y to launch and I'll happily give Tesla my money

Not just the AD. I'm quite sure our govt will ensure that any losses in petrol tax and cost of building the charging infra will be fully recovered, if not more, via all the different form of taxes that will come for EVs as it starts to gain widespread adoption. For a start, just look at SP Power's EV charging rate per KWH, its like more than double that of residential rates.

For the many out there who are still dreaming that EV will be their route to cheaper car ownership... I'm afraid it's not going to happen.

Is VW not doing direct sales as they did not appoint any AD?

 

Their car price is not cheap either. With or w/o middle man. 

Yes, exactly. Their markup can fight with or even higher than some ADs

In the first place, Govt would never want the car to be easily owned in Singapore. And also what every tax the Govt imposed, those who able to afford will still continue to buy car.

I think I like the Ioniq 5 better... somehow the front and back doesn't seem to meld... dislike that slit eye look of the headlamps... maybe I prefer larger grilles...

I like Ioniq5 but if Model Y is much cheaper than Ioniq5, I will go with Model Y.

My guess is Model Y will be about $125k excl COE

Anyone put deposit on Ev6? $236k pricing for single motor seems reasonable in today's climate. Same size as Model Y but much more refined interior
