Victory X Car Audio - The Trip up north with EV BYD E6.
A Short and simple guide for BYD E6 2021 Users who wants to go up north, Genting KL and more do note this guide is not for all EV models as the new E6 has a range of 500km with 70 kw battery.
The Trip up north with EV BYD E6.
This is my humble guide, it contains what is needed for me to get to genting and back to singapore.
Below are the items needed for this trip, some items are good to have and some are optional in cases where Jom Charge is occupied.
Users with ChargEv can charge at Petronas where there are tons of ChargEV chargers.
Having that said it is possible to drive without ChargEV but one has to be extra careful not to miss any charging points.
if possible follow the route on this guide it will get you to KL / Genting when you charge 100% at every charging point.
Important Notes
Always drive and cruise like all cars, in case of BYD E6, try to keep at max speed of 140 km/h the car management system will auto throttle down to 20-40 kw depending on road conditions.
Turn on Recycle mode to Large, for the whole trip.
