IN Tesla, Model Y, SUVs, EVs

Tesla’s long-awaited compact sports utility vehicle finally hits the roads here.


It’s an SUV that’s slightly larger than its first model here, the Model 3 saloon. As you can tell from the pictures, their styling is essentially identical, because the two share the majority of their components: as much as 75% according to electrek.co.

Tesla Model Y now on sale in Singapore

Order books have opened for Tesla’s compact SUV


When it comes to the latter, the entry version known as the i4 eDrive40, when fully-charged, is capable of a range of up to 590km. Timely, considering that Singapore drivers will be able to drive into Malaysia without restrictions again from April 1st. With such a range, the i4 should be able to be driven to Kuala Lumpur without any problems. It is also reassuring to know that Shell has a network of 180kW high-speed chargers along the North-South Expressway in Malaysia just in case the i4 or any other EV needs a quick juice-up. Powered by a 250kW (340hp) and 430Nm electric motor that drives the rear wheels, this enables this EV to accelerate to 100km/h from a standstill in 5.7 seconds.

The first four-door EV from BMW sets the brand on a direct course with the Tesla Model 3 in its sights


If the car vaguely looks like a Volvo XC40, particularly from the front end, that’s probably because it mostly is Polestar started out as a performance sub-brand of the Swedish carmaker. The brand is under ownership of Geely Auto, which also includes Lotus, smart, Proton, and of course, Volvo amongst its 18-brand portfolio.

POLE POSITION: Polestar 2 aims for Tesla Model 3

The Volvo-spawned EV brand makes its debut in Singapore with Polestar 2, a compact sedan which offers something different from the popular American brand.


It didn’t take long for this car to garner attention. At the first bus stop after exiting the local dealer’s showroom, teenage boys were pointing at the car. Ahh… Looks like I have some celeb moments to look forward to. On top of that, taxi drivers were whipping out their smartphones, taking photos of this car whenever the light turns red at junctions.Unfortunately the fairer sex seem unimpressed, probably because of how oddly styled the i3 is. It looks like a small MPV + hatchback + mini fridge all rolled into one; so gentlemen, don’t expect to attract ladies with this car. Unless you’re Channing Tatum or Ryan Gosling…

All that talk about electric cars got us very curious — we tried living with one over a weekend


This practicality is a result of clever packaging.

BRABUS Tesla Roadster

IN Tesla, BRABUS, Electric car, Roadster, EV

The BRABUS customization program for the Tesla Roadster is the very first tuned electric car in the market. Eradicating notions that EVs are the end of the modifying scene.


In summary, apart from the limited storage space, relatively spartan interior and the hype that this car generates in public, the Tesla Roadster Sport with its exotic look and super car slaying acceleration is truly one amazing car to drive. And best of all, this car does not require any visit to the petrol station or service and maintenance associated with internal combustion engines (I.C.E), all one needs to do is just plug the car to any conventional electrical outlet when the ‘juice’ needs topping up, and he or she is good to go once the car is recharged. Plus you also get to do your part in saving the earth!
