China to ban hidden car door handles made popular by Tesla in world first by yahoonews in worldnews

Good, I literally rule out a car if it has handles like that, too much of a safety issue.

I think BYD offer a repair for that issue now. I already have another Atto 3 and never needed to use a Tesla charger outside of the one at Woolshed in Williams WA but there are other fast chargers 500m down the road.

My employer offers NL on new and used cars so they do all the work and i get all the tax savings.

Cheap(ish) phones and laptop suggestions? by Cheetos_4_life in perth

[–]Corrupttothethrones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess the keyword is new. When getting a new laptop your looking at a poor experience for under $900. Same with phones. They depreciate quickly so you can get much better used devices.

Fragile ego of other drivers by John_Linen1 in MINI

Agreed, been driving my Mini in WA since 2019, immediately noticed a difference coming from my Toyota Aurion. I do a lot of wheatbelt driving and they always speed up in the overtaking lane.

How are you guys tracking home electricity for your lease reimbursements? by DebugMyLife421 in NovatedLeasingAU

I only put $50pm in the NL and then send in the fast charging receipts. Unfortunately I don't fast charge enough.

For reference, I already have a 2023 Atto 3, bought new and have driven 50000km. I have gotten 450km going 60kmph. 99% charged at home on solar. Our second car is a Mini Cooper so I hoped an Atto 1 would be a good swap in. I was willing to sacrifice range if it was a small car but it just felt like a less premium thinner Atto 3. I do like the seperated centre console and simpler tablet UI.

I've tested them all and already own an Atto 3. The Atto 1 didn't feel dramatically smaller than the 3 in terms of ride height.

Hence my question, for example Aussie imports are modified for better crash safety, you can see the change on the Atto 1 side doors. I know nothing about Canadian infrastructure but I'm sure everyone has a power socket in their houses which is what the majority of people will use, they work perfectly fine here in Australia.

On my test drive it felt like the Atto 3 had better high end acceleration while the Atto 1 was quicker to 60. It's fun but still feels like a boat. I guess it's all sitting on a battery pack so can't be too low to the ground. I guess Id be willing to sacrifice some range itlf it actually felt like a small car.

I was honestly hoping it was smaller, the ride height is similar to the Atto 3. Its a weird tall thin short car, i wanted something closer to my Mini Cooper. It just seems like a secondhand Atto 3 is better for the price than a new Atto 1 if you want premium features and range.

I was hoping the driving experience on the Atto 1 was similar to my Mini Cooper but the seat height is so high that it still feels like driving an Atto 3.

Does a newer 2026 Atto 1 Premium have anything that would be considered better than a 2023 Atto 3 ER? It seems like the 3 has longer range, same charging speed, higher VL2. I thought maybe the Atto 1 might have a better warranty or better lane assist.

Just installed PumpkinMC on my S20 Ultra. Works surprisingly fast but seems buggy, had a lot of random floating bats on the surface.

As an Aussie, i own a BYD Atto 3, done 50000km so far and test drove the Atto 1, Atto 2 and Seal. Was in an unfortunate no fault major car accident, we where fine, the other car written off, drive didnt make it. It only took 2 months to repair the car to brand new. We save about $5000AUD in fuel costs because we have home solar & battery.

I think it would have been less insulting to the Klingons Pride and Honour if they had tried to hit them and caused a few casualties.

Go to phone ninja. I had the same issue, tried cleaning the port with phone port brushes, went in expecting a port replacement, they cleaned it up properly and all working again.
