      Isn't a saving of 7-$8000 off brand new still a decent enough saving to warrant a post?
      For me I'd save the 15% or so and get a demo over new.

        BYD is the only EV brand yet to drop prices, they will soon as every other maker is dropping prices around them.

        You’ll be buying new at this price soon

          You have run into the chicken and egg question lol.
          The other EV brand drop prices due to the already cheap BYD range. Not the otherway around.
          But BYD will still drop more and challenge others again. This is the BYD well-known business strategy.

      • Rec0nz on 19/05/2024 - 16:58

        Demo cars are very often just tagged as such. Which means the dealer has purchased it and it's classed as a sold car. But a Demo is actually exactly the same as a new car.

        Every car is driven 30 times before it is delivered to the customer.

    • Bigboomboom on 25/04/2024 - 08:20

      No, most people reported they got "demo" with 100km on odometer. They are "used" in name only, they are trying to get rid of 2023 stock before refresh incoming, and they don't want to lower price. The trade off is that you can't get state rebates as these are "used" and not brand new.

    • Bigboomboom on 25/04/2024 - 08:22

      Because everyone including Volvo and Toyota get government subsidy for EV in China. Bz4x is like $35k in China.

        $20,000 in subsidies? I don't think so..

    Could someone help to explain warranty? Battery is 160,000km or 8 years, SOH ≥70%? Is this typical for all electric cars including Tesla?

    https://bydautomotive.com.au/public/vehicle-warranty-2022.pd…

    My iPhone battery is pretty unusable when drop below 90%, not sure how much range still available when car battery drop close to 70%?

    • nebakke on 25/04/2024 - 12:04

      Given that the Atto 3 has an estimated range of 410Km, I'd venture a guess and say that 70% battery probably puts it somewhere around 287km range? Give or take a bit for manufacturer estimation, different power drain at stop/start etc…

      • [Deactivated] on 25/04/2024 - 12:45

        Probably not linear proportion from experience on phones/laptops? Assume 250km range after 8 years, probably only worth less than $10k by then?

        The owner guide also says 12 months / 20,000km service interval, any idea how much each cost?

        Really want to switch to electric car but the overall cost of ownership still holding me back… :(

        • milobob on 25/04/2024 - 17:31

          Servicing is about $1200 over the first 6 years or so when I calculated. Not that much different to some ice cars. Much less than a Mazda.

        • nebakke on 26/04/2024 - 09:58

          Yeah that's sort of what I'm thinking - I figure that falls in the 'manufacturer estimation, different power drain' type area… Like with a phone it typically eats more power to power on/off than it does to just keep it churning along doing nothing. It'd be the same with the car, so around 250Km seems like a reasonable estimation in my mind at least.
          Whether that's an issue is up to you I guess - I tend to think of it in terms of how frequently I actually drive more than that in a day. Sure, Australia is a big country, but as an everyday driver I'd think 250k would be plenty for most - and I used to have quite a long daily commute.

    • Bigboomboom on 25/04/2024 - 15:22

      How is your iPhone unusable when below 90%? Wife iPhone 12 PM battery has been 89% for over a year and still fine, 5 h screen on time heavy usage

      • [Deactivated] on 25/04/2024 - 17:35

        Not sure, SE at 87% capacity, weekly statistic say less than 2 hours daily, 100% to 20% from morning 6am till afternoon 4pm. Once low power mode kicks in at 20%, can last for about 3 more hours. Not much app installed, normally only run Safari, Mail, Outlook, Team, iMessage. Also not used to watch video.

  • Dack Smith on 25/04/2024 - 17:22

    Ex demo or last year model deals for most manufacturers is a waste of time as the discount isn't worth the time. The vehicle is last year stock.

    Better off getting new vehicle with the same manufacturers and compliance year in Australia. Then negotiation on that price.

    I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the ex demo have a manufacturer year 2022 and compliance year 2023.

    Each to their own.
    I bought mine and happy with the deal. $9,500 saving.
    Mine has 10km on the clock (delivery km's only) and is effectively new but labelled a 'demo'.
    MY24 is coming out and upgrades look minor (same mechanicals and battery, new bigger screen and better tyres).
    I don't think you'll be able to negotiate close to $9,500 savings when they arrive.
    Deal is good timing and works for me.

    Maybe because I am Chinese and saw more than a fair share of Chinese EV fire videos, I wont buy those; but are people at large not concerned with safety? Rumor has that CCP censors reports of those cars catching fire so we dont know the real incident rates, and I cannot find stats outside of China on Chinese EV burn rate.

    • khell on 29/04/2024 - 14:29

      Maybe because they're not catching fire? LMAO.

      • enveloped on 29/04/2024 - 14:57

        Was I not clear in the post saying I have seen more than a fair share of such videos? for example https://www.reddit.com/r/real_China_irl/comments/1c24fze
        So they do catch fire, the problem is all EV catches fire and I couldn't find trustworthy stats to compare brand to brand. Chinese forums discussions had that the leadership required Chinese media not to report EV fires.

        • khell on 29/04/2024 - 15:13

          That's exactly my point. All EVs can catch fire. That this is NOT widely reported except by a few dubious corners of the Internet with no sources or evaluation into the cause of the fire is clear that the problem is not widespread.

        • Nom on 29/04/2024 - 20:49

          the problem is all EV catches fire

          No they do not.

          https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/nov/20/do-electric…

          The Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency this year found that there were 3.8 fires per 100,000 electric or hybrid cars in 2022, compared with 68 fires per 100,000 cars when taking all fuel types into account.

          Australia’s Department of Defence funded EV FireSafe to look into the question. It found there was a 0.0012% chance of a passenger electric vehicle battery catching fire, compared with a 0.1% chance for internal combustion engine cars.

          Elon Musk’s Tesla is the world’s biggest maker of electric cars. It says the number of fires on US roads involving Teslas from 2012 to 2021 was 11 times lower per mile than the figure for all cars, the vast majority of which have petrol or diesel engines.

          Your existing combustion engined car is significantly more likely to be involved in a fire.

          • enveloped on 29/04/2024 - 22:56

            @Nom: This discussion was not about EV versus non-EV, you caught a phrase that was over-generalised and provided your source, but that source interested me, for those who studied this is only 1 step away from studying brand-to-brand comparison between EVs.

            To be honest, the Chinese forums I read almost uniformly have China-made vehicle fire videos and no Tesla burning videos ever came to my feed (such forums only post about incidents that took place in China so I should see a Tesla or two if they were similar in quality). Intuitively, the amount of them popping up is higher than the 11 incidents officially reported between 2021 and 2022 for BYD. Just as I was writing this reply another new video popped up (it didn't assert which Chinese EV caused it), reportedly burnt right today. It seems netizens generally believed the real data in China is censored the same way covid death toll was. (On a side note, the same Chinese forums suggested that the fire rate is coupled with the low chance of escaping, apparently escaping from a burning typical China-made EV is very difficult.)

            My best attempt at uncovering the EV-to-EV comparison data came to this GPT advice, which I estimate will take several hours to days to trace down to any meaningful data, so I'll share here in case anyone has the time to dig, I am curious of any findings.

            Traditionally, vehicle fire safety data in the U.S. has been collected and reported by agencies such as the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). These organizations use data collected from various fire departments and traffic safety reports to analyze and publish findings on vehicle fires, including their causes and statistics around their frequency and impacts.
            https://www.usfa.fema.gov/statistics/reports/index.html
            https://www.usfa.fema.gov/prevention/vehicle-fires/
            https://www.nhtsa.gov/data

            For UK-specific data, the government’s data sets on road vehicle fires offer insights into fire incidents involving different vehicle makes and models, although the data granularity on specific electric vehicle brands like BYD and Tesla may vary​ (GOV.UK)​.
            https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/fire-statistics-inc…

            P.S. This is exactly the work I hoped AI could do, but the current GPT pricing model based on Q&A instead of project makes it impossible to ask AI to form any new knowledge from researching. It's probably limited to the planning capability of the current AI.

              For the past few years, the EV market in China has been selling over half a million EVs every month, within China.

              There are literally millions upon millions of them on the road.

              There's no conclusion to be drawn from videos of fires, other than car fires happen, and from a sample size of millions, you're going to see some fires 🤷🏼‍♂️

              It's a total none issue.

              • enveloped on 29/04/2024 - 23:27

                @Nom: How did you hop from no conclusion to none-issue, which is a conclusion? On the other hand, due to front-of-queue very recent mass adoptions in China, if things were actually bad, it would take some time to show up in stats outside of China. It behoves to know.

                Netizens posted the sacrifice today of the 3 passengers was an important step for Huawei EVs to become a world leader and urges Huawai to continue to struggle for success , it's hard to tell if it is sarcastic given the background of a national consumer movement to prop up Huawei to demonstrate the failure of US sanction, but if it were true, their export models will hopefully be made based on the learnings from today's incident.

                Edit: a follow-up post said it's 思皓E50A, not Huawei's car.
