134 - Perodua QV-E: Battery not included. What were they thinking?

from Let's Talk About · host SoyaCincau

Perodua’s first EV, the QV-E, has sparked one of the biggest debates of the year. Not because of the EV itself, but because the battery is not included. Instead, the Perodua QV-E comes with a battery-leasing model (Battery as a Service) that has left many Malaysians confused, divided and asking… what were they thinking?In this episode of Let’s Talk About, Amin and Alex break down everything you need to know about the QV-E controversy — how battery leasing works, why Perodua is doing it, what it means for pricing, and whether Malaysians are ready for this concept. We also discuss whether this move is actually beneficial or just simply complicated for consumers.
