So, I just ordered an EV.

The other day I ordered a BYD Atto 3.

For ages I've seen people who ordered Teslas posting pictures of the charger they've had installed even though they won't be receiving the car for ages. I remember one even painted the whole garage red and white with a Tesla logo on the wall. I thought they were quite silly.

I currently have 12 tabs open for various EV chargers. I get it now.

Anyone know what sort of waiting times BYD have at the moment? The order page still just says "Order Received" and hasn't moved on to "In Production".

cykablyatbot,

What country are you in? That might make a difference.
If you are in the US I have bad news for you...

zurohki,

I didn't think they were even available in the US.

cykablyatbot,

No, they aren't. That was the joke.
Although some Chinese vehicles are available for purchase but can't be licensed for public roads. People use them on farms and ranches. And I imagine most car manufacturers buy the competition's vehicles and do teardowns to learn. Even some hobbyists and bloggers do that.
