  • A great entry-level EV to help you get started

    This car is an incredible value-for-money deal when you are getting an EV, as this car has an insane range of over 400km on a single charge. In my daily life I don’t need to ride this car more than 50km a day. Even at the longest distances, I need to charge this car only once a month. The problem that EVs initially had with their high price point has been fixed with this model. It has an affordable price point, which makes it a no-brainer for daily commute vehicles as it has a great cabin and driving experience.

  • Toyota RAV4 Ownership Experience

    I’ve been driving a Toyota RAV4 for a few years now, and while the first one or two years were smooth, the problems started showing up soon after. The brake noise began first — both while braking and from the brake pads themselves. Then came issues with the panoramic sunroof. On my RAV4, while opening the sunroof, the sunshade fabric got stuck halfway and bunched up unevenly near the rear section. The shade movement became irregular and misaligned, and it no longer opens smoothly. I have taken the car to the service center four times, and even after the national service team inspected it, the issue remains unresolved. Overall, the RAV4 might look impressive at first, but the long-term reliability and service experience have been disappointing. If you’re planning to buy one — think twice.
