I never tried 許志安 but I faced the same problem with a number of HK singers before the update, seems like Spotify did not register 薛凱琪 as "薛凱琪" but "Fiona Sit" only? And it appears to me it has nothing to do with Voice Command, as a search for "薛凱琪" by written input returns empty too

Mine is AP1 MS. The so-called calibration took quite some time. I believe you have to drive past a number of slots before it finishes calibration. Going back and forth of the same slot may not be enough. Anyone with AP2 can share their experience on calibration?

And you don't actually occupy any space that will affect anyone else What happened is just common HK way of business, if they can pay, make them pay more

Did that happen inside the tunnel? Or at geofenced area where Autopilot is not available?

The Ombudsman, yes or no. Ombudsman investigates complains, they may or may not go further and compare Apple Carplay with the calendar on Tesla by themselves. They can have a rather different conclusion if we compare apple to apple and orange to orange (i.e. a car with screen that can display a...

well.....they are good at it... i guess you have no option but paying the monthly fee? even a lawyer can't help you in this case

So you get a new meter and your own charger installed in your own parking space, you pay your own electric bill, and your car park charges you monthly fee? What is that for?

How far you will go? If you are prepared to submit a judicial review in the end, this may be a good start You need to make sure Tesla has applied for the calendar (assume that will be rejected) Then you gonna ask TD about Apple Carplay (assuming TD "tolerates" Apple Carplay but not Tesla's...

i respectfully disagree with your disagreement with @Lerxt. The HK govt refuses to put in enough resource to formally assess most new tech stuff. While we do have regulatory offices within the govt on tech stuff in various departments, we never have enough technical capacity to fully understand...

well, some spaces are simply not for us..... I guess there is some misunderstanding here, there is no "hill hold" in Tesla. It's "vehicle hold". It is not the same as "hill assist" / "hill start assist" in other cars. Tesla's vehicle hold is engaged by you pressing the brake pedal a little...

Instead of troll post, this serves as a very good reminder for everyone in HK subforum, drive safely or everyone's insurance premium will keep rising year by year btw, I am not sure about what happened in the first picture. For the second picture, driver fleed the scene after the "accident"...

I will give them credit for doing their homework and creating different categories to explain their near hands-off management philosophy Can't see why the car park management will have to spend extra manpower in case someone refuses to pay. If the owner refuses to pay, he simply can't drive...

Isn't that a paradox? Cannot reserve any spots by contract (legally) but attempted (heroically) to protect some spaces with cones, either one seems to be a lie to me For the cones argument, if they were to "protect some spaces", they could have simply impound any ICE taking EV spots, Wilson...

Happened to me when my S was new. Cruise not available for a day or two then came back by itself MANY times. Longest period of "absence" was around 7 days. I could not resist calling the service centre at that time, they checked the sensors remotely, told me radar need recalibration, scheduled a...

That comes to the question of whether air-con etc are counted towards the Wh/km. If not, that explains the 5 km difference Maybe they are using a different formula, maybe they are not, haven't come across any sharing on this yet

I guess you are talking about 9 kWh is 10% of 90 kWh, that's why you are expecting only 10% gone for 9 kWh used? If so, 90 kWh model doesn't give you 90 kWh real capacity Tesla’s hacked Battery Management System exposes the real usable capacity of its battery packs 90D/P90D – ~85.8 kWh total...

One more thing, top speed. I will keep the discussion healthy and within legal boundary ;) I know according to Tesla's website, driving at 70 km/hr use less energy than 80 km/hr. But from my real world experience, it's the other way round... Make sure you use the TACC, especially if the legal...

I explored ways to find the lowest Wh/km and found that what matters most is starting from stop. We have a very heavy car. Model S is more than 2 tons, X is even heavier. Starting from stop uses most energy. That's why you waste a lot in stop and go traffic. If you can be gentle on this, your...

My S60 lost ~3 km per day with both Energy Saving Mode and "Always Connected" turned on. No experience on X so I couldn't comment To prevent vampire drain let the car sleep like a baby, only connect to the car when there is a need (e.g. turn on air-con before driving). It takes some time...

I believe yes but did not make a claim before, correct me if I am wrong

But they have taken things to a whole new level for not stopping even when dry

Don't worry, Jswlim. The auto wiper function is ground breaking tech from Tesla, they never work like those in any other cars. It will only work the way I / everyone wanted when driving in heavy downpour. I remember they claimed they improved it at least once in previous firmware update. To me...

The worst thing is Zurich cancelled the zero excess part.... My car was rear-ended when I was waiting at a traffic light (don't know how the other guy did not see me), he refused to cover the full cost of my repair until I told him I have zero excess and I will submit insurance claims unless he...

Salute to all who put their effort into this. (Didn't quote the whole message as it's rather lengthy) That listed all our opinions and why they won't work, unfortunately. I don't think you have to, Carrie Lam just won't listen to anyone who has too little influence. But if we have enough...

Guys please be safe on road, my quotation from Zurich has doubled this year (for a 2015 model S60)............I asked quite a few other companies, all above 10k for comprehensive coverage And always go for comprehensive instead of third party only, I heard of a guy who drives for 20+ years in...

Could you please show me how to get in touch with Liberty? I could not find any relevant info on their website

Don't expect too much, remember the guy who did an interview with appledaily about autopilot back then? He simply did everything against the instruction in the owner's manual to show everyone how "dangerous" autopilot was People who are willing to learn about the car will continue asking...

I recently bought the IRO Dashcam for Tesla model S from a store in Golden Computer Arcade in Shum Shui Po. $1980 front view HD cam only with no GPS. Pros: specifically designed for Tesla. The whole thing hides completely between the rear view mirror and windscreen, you will see no trace of...

Look at this, I am sure our Calendar won't come back The Ombudsman published a report on "Direct Investigation into Government Regulation of Special Transport Services to Persons with Mobility Difficulties" which criticizes the TD for not doing enough on special transport services yesterday...

@markwj, great work for the excel file You may also wish to add a column which divides the pre-tax price by the manufacturer's range, which clearly shows why people are favouring the "expensive car" (against the criticism that govt is "sponsoring" the rich) For base model, the "cheapest" iMiev...

Good to see there are still rational LegCo councillors in HK :)

That's bad... EV is meant for green transport and self use, unlike those super sports cars which are meant for other purposes including investment. I would advise him (and anyone) not to pay (and encourage) those cunning jerks who speculate in FRT of EV... Thank you for the info

Anyone know if new inventory for model X is still available from Tesla showroom? My friend wishes to replace his ICEs with a model X but he took too long to make the decision..... According to tesla.com, there is no more new inventory in HK, any chance he can try his luck in showroom? (he lives...

For public debate / partition, such thing does not really exist in HK. We have protest march attended by hundred of thousands for political issues, yes we are the expert in peaceful protest march. Usually nothing will happen afterwards. And we have only a few thousand EV owners in HK, an even...

Like what miimura pointed out, the Germany incentive is about the base price while the HK FRT is about the total price If my memory serves me right, you have to pay tax for options enabled after delivery too and there is no loophole for this as you can't enable anything legally without going...

I meant someone will do this given the incentive I did not know there is such "European programme". I just know the parallel import way. Anyway, just wish to point out things get more tricky for Tesla as you don't have / need connectivity in most ICE. There are quite a few good mechanics out...

http://gia.info.gov.hk/general/201702/22/P2017022200492_253924_1_1487745625026.pdf Let's take a look in 2014 - 2016 as model S started delivery in HK since 2014 According to the table under "EV Models in Hong Kong" Promotion of Electric Vehicles in Hong Kong | Environmental Protection...

As far as I remember, Tesla is marking 20% (or 30%?) up from the production cost of model S and X as sale price. This is to make money for further R&D on EV, building factories and making mass production of model 3 possible. Model S / X is not meant to be the affordable EV

Let's say someone does start such a business and he only get 100 orders which every new owner pays him $100k, that's already a 10M business. You don't need much to start doing this and I believe people are willing to pay more than $100k instead of the current tax You can just follow the same...

Power generation, we are one of those cities closest to the sea in this world, have we made use of any tidal power? Can we? And did anyone try to promote solar in HK? Diesel vehicles, anyone who drives in HK knows how to beat the annual vehicle examination, we even have smoky public buses in HK...

Apparently they have not defined what is not a commercial vehicle. If a Tesla can somehow be considered part of these (e.g. registered under a "car rental" company), I see a new business of helping people setting up new "car rental" companies, just like the parallel import of "preowned" cars...

That's ok, no problem at all Rather interesting for HK as people working in EPD either don't care too much or don't know too much about environmental protection other than levy on plastic bags...

He was trying to fool you with the so called European standard vs American car. He was just referring to IEC 62196 which is more commonly used in Europe. The Tesla sold in HK market adopts IEC standard (aka the "blue cable" often mentioned in the HK subforum). I don't know if this wise man from...

Destination chargers at convenient places are rather full nowadays, I can't imagine what would happen when new model S with limited free supercharging credits arrive... true :D

My friend used dent doctor for non-aluminium car with good results DENT DOCTOR I am not sure if they do aluminium body, you may give them a call I have at least 10 times more scratches from road debris than my previous car, probably due to the larger size of model S, I hate to say this, but...

I do not want to disable my auto-dimming, this is great stuff given the number of illegal, retrofit HID headlamps in HK is always on the rise, but I may find a way that could help you To cut long story short, as the time when I drove at night but found my cabin brighter than daytime has...

Probably too many new buyers ask the same question and they decided to include it as "standard" disclaimer

Until I have a home / workplace charger, I will keep my life-long free supercharging car, otherwise the rise in second hand price will not cover my own supercharging cost, which is more than $90 per hour (Lowest rate @ $1.5 x 60 min) ========================================= And I am more...

The one we have is IEC62196, which is capable of "medium" speed charging CHAdeMO is quick charger
