    උඹලා හුත්ත මෙතන් පකේ ටෝක්ස් දෙන්න කලින් practical පැත්ත පොඩ්ඩක් හිතපන්කො. ලංකාවෙ වාහනයක් ගන්න කොටි 2ක්වත් ඕනා. නිකන් හිතපන් අවුරුදු 5ක් විතර පැදලා ඒ වාහනෙන් උඹට බාගයක් වත් recover කරන්න බැරිනම් උඹට ඊලඟට යන්න වෙන්නෙ 3වීල් එකකට තමා.

    ලංකාවෙ කෝටියක් හම්බ කරන්න කොච්චර කල් යනවද? කෝටියකට ලෝන් එකක් දැම්මොත් වාරිකේ ලක්ශ 2යි මාසෙකට. ලක්ශ 2ක් ලෝන් ගෙවන් යන්න පඩි හම්බෙන්නෙ කීයකටද?

    අන්න ඒ ලයින් එකේ හිතුවාම වාහනේක 2nd hand value එක වැදගත්. :yes::yes:

    හැබැයි මෙහෙමයි වාහනයක් තියා පුටාර් එකක් ගන්න සල්ලි නැතුව හිටියානම් මටත් හිතෙන්නෙ EV එකක් පැදලා විසිකරලා දාන්න තමා 🥴 🥴



    investment නෙවී බලන්නෙ, ඊලඟ upgrade එකට යනකොට පරන එකෙන් කීයක් මට recover කරගන්න පුලුවන්ද කියලා තමා බලන්නෙ. සල්ලි ඉතින් ගස්වල නෙවීනෙ අපිට හැදෙන්නෙ.

    දැන් මම කියල තියෙන්නෙත් ඒකම තමා. සල්ලි තියන උන් ඕව බලන්නෙ නෑ ජාතකේ වගේ. ගත්ත පැද්ද විසික් කලා.ආයෙ වාහනෙන් recover කරගන්න පුළුවන්ද අනන් මනන් බලන් නෑ. ගත්ත පැද්ද අලුත් එකක් ගත්ත. එහෙම කරන්න බැරි අය කරන්න ඕන දේ තමා ආයෙ දෙනකොට ඉක්මනට දෙන්න පුළුවන් හොද resale value එකක් තියෙන එකකට යන එක. ආයෙ එකෙ අමුතුවෙන් අහ අහ ඉන්න දෙයක් නෑ

    හෙම උනාම second hand market එ

    චීන්නුන්ගෙ technology ඉක්මනට වෙනස් වෙනවානේ, ඉතින් උන් අද දාන වාහනේ තව අවුරුදු 2 3කින් විතර outdated වෙනවා. එහෙම උනාම second hand market එක වගේම අවුරුදු 5 6කින් කෑලි හොයන්න ගියාම නටන්න වෙනවා. ලංකාවෙ වාහනයක් එන්නෙ අවුරුදු 30 40ක් විතර ඉඳලා නැති වෙලා යන්නනේ, ඉතින් මේ අලුත් electrical සීන් එක ඕකට හරියන්නෙ නෑ කියලා හිතෙනවා.

    උඹලා හිතනවද මේ argument එක valid කියලා? නැත්තන් උඹලා හිතන්නෙ මේ වාහනේ දිහා කොහොමද බලන්න ඕන කියලා? 2nd hand මාර්ක්ට් ගැන නොහිතා අවුරුදු 5 -10ක් පැදලා විසිකරන සීන් එකේද මේක බලන්න ඕන?

    Copied from what i wrote in a different thread :

    ---------------------------------------------------
    Yes, true. My guess is that half of these new cars (i.e. 50%) could end-up being a massive financial burden on the owners and eventually the country within 10-15 years.

    SDVs (Software Defined Vehicles) are NOT proven in the real world for decades yet. It's nice to be able to say "Hey BYD, open sunroof" until one little software/network/connectivity/hardware module glitch bricks the entire thing! It`s 2026 and my Windows 11 PC still has Software issues. Imagine when a car shits itself at the wrong place at the wrong time with the whole family inside. :lol:

    The entire car industry is at a historical milestone and manufactures are barely keeping up with the speed of change (from electrification to emissions standards to software development).

    For me personally, the following are a massive no at this point in time with new cars (might be a different story in 10 years when technologies have evolved):

    ** Any PHEV - hideously complicated for little benefit. These are simply transitional tech to showcase fuel economy figures (meet gov. regulations) and to extend range
    ** Any SDV (Software Defined Vehicle) - Tesla is probably an exception since they are the oldest SDV in the market, but there is a chance that their current hardware won't be able to run the latest and greatest software in 10 years.
    ** Any small engined car with un-proven tech - i.e. wet timing belts, belt driven mild-hybrid systems, AMT etc..
    ** Diesel engines - almost dead technology for passenger cars/4WDs`


    The following are safe bets when it comes to new cars in 2026 IMHO:

    ** Toyota and Honda Hybrids with eCVT or similar drivetrain - Proven for a few decades already
    ** Basic EV`s which are NOT full-blown SDV`s. Don't know whether there is such a thing available in the market though (apart from old Nissan Leafs`)
    ** Anything with a traditional petrol drivetrain with no experimental tech.

    if you plan to use that vehicle for 10 years and has/planning to have off-grid system, EV is the best choice.
    LFP batteries last 15-20 years with at least 60-75% battery capacity. so even after 20 years you can use it for 80-100km for sure.
    once you replace the battery 15-20 years later batteries will be super cheap and will have even more driving range.

    but if you plan to sell it in 3 years (planning to migrate), don't plan to have off-grid, or have to go 300km journeys frequently like 3,4 times a month, go for a series-hybrid. (engine is only for charging the battery, motors drive the car all the time)
    with series-hybrids you completely ditch gearboxes, dual-clutch random switching and all bullshit. engine is optimized for specific rpm range which is extremely efficient for get the best energy out of fuel you burn. no varying rpm inefficiencies you find with ICE or parallel hybrids. motors delivers instant power, no turbo lags, smooth comfortable ride.

    i can talk about how much i like EVs all day long and why I only like series-hybrid from other hybrids. but hope this is enough for a basic decision making

    But do you think people will like to ride the same old thing for 5 + years when the roads get filled up with more modern versions?

    that's up to the person machan.
    I would rather drive a 10 year old byd EV I purchased brand new and has 0 worries like i get with petrol cars than buying a recondition or used gas car which is 5 years old.
    just think about it people still buying 10-15 years old cars for 10-15 millions just because they are made in japan. that just crazy to me.

    People are buying old cars because they cannot afford a new one. if you are looking for a spacious vehicle you have to pay 50laks for a 15yr old sedan or you can pay 100laks to buy a brand new tiny hatchback. what would you choose?

    I mean how many 10 year old BYDs are even out there? 10? 15?

    Meanwhile 1000s of 2000s Japanese cars still running around with zero issues except running maintenance

    still i think it's up to the person. if i have to buy a family vehicle for 4 members. one which is spacious but old, which i don't know the history of usage etc vs brand new small one. I would definitely get the small brand new one. cause I know it will work for another 5 years without any major issue and maintenance. I don't have to worry about the history, repairs etc.

    If I have to go a long trip with family with the best comfort available, I would get a luxury car for rent for that day.
    since my daily life doesn't need such ultra luxury rides, I'm ok with a small one.

    sadly, with our ridiculous vehicle taxes, apita 'rawulai kadai dekama ba, ekak thoraganna wenawa.'. I would go with the small brand new one so I don't have worry about it and no additional maintenance costs.

    since they're new in here. in the future you will see in SL too. there are 10-15 years old teslas in US still has really good batteries. most of their issues with doors, windows, seats and interior components. nothing major with drive train.

    now toyota is also realising the EVs are the true future. not their stupid hydrogen dogshit.
