I’d guess Ze-o mean “zero” footprint?

It’s below 100km range.. trust me…no car manufacturer will tell the truth or the full truth.
Don’t forget batteries charging capacity will also go down after prolonged use.

100+km is pretty practical as a day to day vehicle! You can work as far as KL if you stay in Klang, you just need to charge it everyday, or even charge it at your office basement car park for free haha.

Lets say it is about the electric bill of a full blast air con overnite everyday? How much will that be? RM200 electric bill? It is considered very cheap.

wow, pretty good achievement, but 105km per charge is not gonna be sufficient here with our long roads and crappy transport system.

made in china? maybe to lower manufacturing cost, if quality control is good, then it should be ok.

if not…..Jiangling Crosswind SUV anyone?

new tech, nice stuff…….just wonder how much electricity is required for that.
suddenly a month of tenaga bill comes to RM1,000…people will be better off with petrol anyhow……i’m sure charging a car aint gonna be cheap.

14,000Pounds !?
Still, a hybrid is the better bet here. With 105km range per charge, it will not be going anywhere further than the nearby kedai runcit.
With hybrid, you can switch over, and reach a recharge area for another 100 plus km electricity drive. And electricity performance in terms of range is weight, and type of usage influenced. Too aggresive, it will get you to the main road. Too heavy, it will stall at the next turning from your house..
Maybe in campus use maybe ideal.
