Your own government you don't know then is you stupid. Fool me thrice ish I kam gong. Gahmen already discouraging own charger by mandating annual inspection. Quite rediculous given that the home charger would be used 100 times in that 1 year, assuming charging to full twice a week. Oh I forgot, gahmen wants to create good paying jobs. EV charger inspector must be one of them. How yo apply? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ct3833 Supersonic November 20, 2022 Share November 20, 2022 These days most of the new cars are hybrid, this article would be more meaningful if they make a comparison between hybrid and EV. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratovarius Turbocharged November 20, 2022 Share November 20, 2022 I din read what was written coz I know the tax just kills the idea of ev in sg. I'm in for ev. Power just comes so much easier. I don't mind paying more for the car itself BUT, the additional tax doesn't make any sense. Again, I have to say I dont agree of gahman propaganda of going greener, but to tax more. Ev supposed to work best in a city state like ours but the tax just kills it. Also, not suitable to people who frequent trips to the north. So I will be sticking to T Rex juice Abit longer. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can bet your last dollar, Ah gong here will. i realized that even on landed with own charger. Ah gong says must have annual checks and licensing. Sort of negates any saving by using own charger Liao. Most landed build own charger for convenience rather than saving Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charging rates from using home electricity rates can be half that of SP's rates of up to 58.8 cents/kwh... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vidz 6th Gear November 21, 2022 Share November 21, 2022 car ownership is about time-saving and conveniences. EV is the opposite even with quick charge; the infrastructures are also years behind. the dino taxes are also an oxymoron since they are cash-cows for the gahment; scholars shunned like vegetables; cannot ownself slap ownself. end up self=pwned. 2030 is the EV hard reset. will be interesting then 😀 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
