government says it wants to lower pollution in the metro? let them show their fervor by giving tax breaks to electric cars.

these rules are not really that new.
they are simply being re-iterated, because of recent questions regarding electric bikes.
napakarami na sa lansangan, at pasaway pa ang iba. may nagtanong kung dapat i-rehistro sila, at kung dapat may lisensiya ang mga nagmamaneho nito.
well, apparently, "dapat".
but so far, i see no real action from the authorities.

but there have been changes.
in the 60s, gas-powered two-wheelers whose engine displacement were below a certain volume, were still exempt from LTO.
and electric vehicles then, were considered toys and not "real motor vehicles".

The Youtube link I posted was just from last year (ABS CBN's Bandila)... PHL Tesla owners can't use their cars in public roads since they can't be registered

(if video doesn't show up, try this)

so it's 2018...

Has LTO finalized their rules on electric cars?

I believe current laws only allow's electric vehicles with a max speed of 60kmh.

the electric utility vehicle of la salle's, plying the roads around their lasalle-st benilde neighborhood, has an official-looking orange number plate.

^in the interest of research those cars get special permit from LTO to ply the roads

as an aside,
did you know that clown make-up designs are register-able?
it's the clown egg registry.

My Uncle's former GF just bought an electric car. I was curious because I don't recognize the emblem so I googled it. I assumed it was cheap kasi China car. I was shocked na it costs P4.8M WTF! Xpeng X9. Sana nag Land Cruiser na lang siya

But you can't get a Land Cruiser at its SRP price. or try to pay the obligatory Toyota tax(Top up) for a unit that years behind in Technology.

And that Xpeng X9 has tech way way ahead of the Land Cruiser.

Seems like it, feeling ko EVS para sa maraming pera na hindi priority ang dependability, those that don't mind risking millions and replace cars every 3 years

... Xpeng X9.

Funny-sounding name.. Parang reverse ng Ped Xing.

Probably cheaper than comparable EVs from non-chinese brands

Why? ... Because it's a Toyota? ... Land Cruiser is overrated ...

Yes

P4.8M is too much of a risk for a China car, but based on the discussion here, China EVs are for people who have too much money.
