This we’re looking at this 2019, 238,000 mile, Chinese electric car.
It spent all of its life, until last week, as a taxi in and around London. In that time it has had nothing replaced or repaired through failure. It maintains its original brakes and suspension, with only tyres, pollens and wiper blades needing replacement.
In fuel savings alone vs a diesel, the original owner has paid the original purchase price, and then some.
That means, no DPFs, DPF regens, EGR coolers, cambelts, timing chains, wet belts, drive belts, starters, alternators, clutches or the many other components ICE cars require to stay mobile.
Enjoy.
