@lone_wolf_XIII Can’t wait for electric M3!

@chapree BMW M Electrified is gonna be a banger! 🔥🔥🔥

So, we got invited to the BMW i3 global launch and here you go, our first look at the new electric 3-series. 900km of range! 👀

I approves

@TheEVuniverse Adoption still rising: soyacincau.com/2026/03/10/mal… But 2026 is transition year tbh: - No more EV tax holiday - New rule from generally forced automakers to seriously consider assembling their mainstream EVs locally - The rise of Chinese PHEV tech So, interesting times ahead!

@chapree Great to hear! Oh, it's fun times in the industry all around. I haven't checked Malaysia's full year EV numbers yet, how's the adoption & industry there right now?

I hired my first full-time employee today. I'm a solo founder, 5 years in, and this is a huge milestone for me. I never see this celebrated here on X - only the huge funding rounds or $ MRR growth posts. A human. Working with me, on the same mission now. Such a big deal.

@TheEVuniverse Yup, still the same gig Not gonna move for a while Especially right now, we are at a very interesting juncture 😆

@chapree Thank you, Syefri! Are you still doing the EV-focused writing?

Kenapa aku tak suggest Perodua? Pasal semua orang duk mintak Perodua sponsor, I assume they already busy, takdak la aku nak suggest… Also I want them get their NEV models together first 😗

After 22 years having its name attached to Singapore Marathon, Standard Chartered Bank has passed the baton to BYD. Interesting… So, bila Proton e.MAS nak take over Standard Chartered as title sponsor for KL Marathon pulak? 😆

Kes curi kabel ni dari dulu, Unifi, telco kena tapi dia orang tak ada menteri yang rajin. Sekali kabel keretapi kena curi, Menteri Pengangkutan terus mintak KDN pinda undang-undang untuk kenakan hukuman berat. Benda ni dah lama kita minta, tapi politicians tua buat tak tau. Kerugian berjuta juta, yang last sekali pengguna kena tanggung dengan kenaikan harga perkhidmatan. So aku tak kisah mamat ni parti mana, tapi kalau buat kerja, kita sapot. Dah tak ada masa kita nak berpolitik bagai sebab teknologi 2026, undang-undang zaman 1970 masih dok pakai. Menteri lain, jangan lepak kangkang. Buat kerja kau.

FINALLY PERLIS GET ANOTHER DC CHARGER On average, this location has a ratio of two Perlis citizens per charging bay (Perlis kan ada 8 orang jer 😃)

@azlan96 la kau pun rasa sama aku ingatkan because its too powerful hahah

@evclinic Why is this car handling and braking so bad in Gran Turismo 7

Xiaomi SU7 Ultra, with 1548 horsepower, as a true production vehicle, recorded a 7:04.957 Nürburgring lap time in June 2025, breaking the previous records held by Rimac Nevera (7:05.298) and Porsche Taycan Turbo GT (7:07.55). In a run against our BMW i4 M50, the SU7 made it feel as if we were driving a broken B58 in an M2. But stepping back before the final driving impression — our inspection of the vehicle brutally impressed us. Unlike mainstream media that focuses on panel gaps, leather on the gear selector, and other superficial “cup holder review” topics, we went a bit deeper under the surface. The first – and essentially the only serious downside – is that the car has SGW (Secure Gateway), meaning the OBD diagnostic port is locked. By searching for the powertrain CAN bus somewhere along the wiring harness, we were able to manually access the PT network, bypass the SGW, sniff the network and capture packets. The battery system is Qilin 2, with a CATL-derived BMS stack with only minor modifications (similar approach as seen in Xpeng and NIO). On the powertrain side, the CAN network looks very similar to a UAES/Bosch architecture (0x1A0–0x1AF). The official diagnostic tool costs around €10,000, but we are already developing our own tool so we can support this rocket within our service ecosystem. The BMS is an 800V system with 214 NMC prismatic cells in series, forming a 93.7 kWh battery pack tailored for high performance. The car offers up to 630 km (391 miles) CLTC range. It supports 800V fast charging, capable of 10–80% in just 11 minutes (5.2C rate). The pack supports 16C discharge, while the battery mass is 638 kg. The vehicle comes fully in track-focused configuration: massive ceramic brake discs, pads, calipers, wheels, and tires. Unlike the Model S Plaid, this car can take repeated track abuse for 6–7 hours continuously. The rear motor is a dual-unit setup with torque vectoring, which works brutally well but requires proper understanding of the system and tuning in Track Mode. The operating system is HyperOS, very similar to Tesla’s system — perhaps even more detailed in some aspects. Interior quality is excellent, driving characteristics are outstanding, and the overall ride comfort is surprisingly well balanced. The seats are actually more comfortable than those in the BMW i4. Now for the most interesting part. When disassembling interior plastics and cosmetic components, we discovered a surprisingly strong similarity to Tesla Model 3 / Model S next-generation chassis design. The front shock tower, shotgun rails, front HVAC carrier, even the rear seat clips — underneath, the battery penthouse layout, wiring routing, reinforcements, and cable positioning look extremely familiar. The vehicle weighs 2360 kg, while the full-carbon prototype series reportedly weighs around 1900 kg. impression? The overall quality of the vehicle is impressive for a company building its first electric car, especially considering it already broke every major performance record. A similar precedent happened once before — when Tesla introduced the Model S. The SU7 Ultra “democratizes” 1550 horsepower for under €100,000 — performance that is now literally accessible to everyone. Some street racing veterans spend over €250,000 on forged internals, turbo systems, and tuning just to reach similar numbers. Conclusion? This car doesn’t just challenge the German automotive industry — in this segment, it completely dominates it and practically euthanizes it. Every major component on this vehicle has been internally developed and manufactured in China, and pushed very close to perfection. The only thing we still don’t know is how repairable and serviceable the vehicle will be long-term — and only mileage and time will answer that question. Would we have one? Yes! We have already ordered one and started building the import and homologation network. Among our previous favorites — Tesla and BMW — this one is now clearly #1.

@ellirahim rambut raya edisi janji kepada isteri 🤣

@chapree Rambut Raya Mark X.

That’s it: the 2025/2026’s Fro has been tamed, in line with the Raya tradition since >10 years ago. Gonna be back for 2026/2027 season soon enough. 😆 #dahjanji #rayataklamalagi

@marauderz some location gsc didn’t take, i forgot which one

@chapree They only sold some? I thought it was a full on buy out?

RIP MBO Cinemas Comeback yg tidak kunjung tiba

@marauderz dia bersambung2 because first they sell some locations to gsc mah now chaplap terus

@chapree I was like.. AGAIN?!

@chapree What the heck?

and here we goooooo

@myturn2play1 gaji journalist tak cukup lumayan bro

@chapree @elonmusk @TeslaCharging @Tesla_Asia Tesla charger: Car not recognized. Please purchase a tesla before charging

Probably the first non-Tesla EV to officially charge at Tesla Supercharger in Malaysia? 😆 #doneclaim @elonmusk @TeslaCharging @Tesla_Asia
