Hey,
Im new to the site and will soon have my BYD car arrive.
I wondered if someone could help me with regards to the below few points though, if anyone has found out about these things.
1. I know the car comes with a Sim Card included and i believed it was mostly used for (OTA updates / Satnav / Emergency SOS / Remote access via App).
Would this sim card be used however for Spotify as an example and any other internet heavy applications, or only specific car related tasks.
I heard that for the first 2 years, you get 1.5 GB of data for the car sim per month, obviously without linking to any WiFi, the car sim data would surely be eaten up easily if other apps are using it.
2. In regards to the forst 2 years sim data allowance. Does anyone know what happens after the 2 years. What costs are incurred and if any plans are known i.e. cost and volume of data.
3. I plan to hotspot my mobile phone to the car and it pick up as WiFi. If i do that, does that then mean any OTA Updates / SatNav would use my mobile data and not the car sim. In theory then not using the car sim data very much ?
How does everyone else find the car sim data allowance. Does it go quickly for you and your use or does anyone else also try not to use it and instead hotspot to the mobile phone.
Many thanks
