I see zero down payment as a real lever for adoption without leaning on subsidies. Looking at the data, that 50-70% cost saving claim will hinge on how charging infrastructure and battery prices move. Setting emotion aside, the 200,000-unit mid-term target is the real test.

Zero down payment, 70% cheaper running costs, all sounds great, but Vietnam and China are already way ahead on this, feels late honestly, not sure it'll even happen.

That 50-70% cheaper running cost claim is sketchy, does it even include battery replacement?

Subsidy program numbers have always been inflated, probably the same story this time.

Zero down payment sounds nice but this is basically an election gimmick.

Fr, zero down payment schemes usually just spike loan defaults later.

Molinas is solid, glad the government's actually pushing EV bikes for real.

Is Molinas like... the nickname for the whole national program?
