45% of EV sales are BYD models.

From 786 units registered in 2022, the Chinese brand has put 2,184 units on the road in the first five months of 2024, accounting for 45%  of all electric cars registered in the period.  The total number of electric cars in Singapore has grown from 6,531 units at the end of 2022 to 16,738 units May 31 this year. One reason for this, automotive consultant Say Kwee Neng said, is the expanded pool of EV models now available, with more slated for launch in 2024, including Xpeng and Zeekr, which is owned by Geely, one of the largest automotive companies and behind established brands like Lotus, Polestar and Volvo.

This brand unlike BYD, will fall under premium brands like Volvo, Polestar.

Distributor not bringing in Zeekr X. Perhaps PI can help.

When the EV comes, a lot of repair shops close shop. Instead of repairing, they just need to change the parts.
