The Bonus EV pack is everything that comes with the Car, IE solar panels, wind turbines, plants, and charge station. I'm guessing EV is short for Environmental.
Sim bills are actually extremely low to begin with, to the point where literally ANY job in the game is enough for a sim to fund their own bills just starting off, assuming they spend all their money on their house.
There are some bill difficulty mods at MTS that make it so you actually have to pay attention to household value and sim wages or else you'll see the repo man every week, they make the game a lot more game-like and make these objects a lot more useful.
FYI Vincent, Charging station is a community lot item, decorative, and is not in Simlish, but in English, so... It's basically 100% useless, unless you like filling up community lots with fake gas stations. Oh, also it's approximately the size of a 30x30 lot.
i got the twizy this am, its adorable for the teens, yes the car is called a twizy, renault is usually not that interesting but this is a big exception
very interesting looking car. don't know what im going to use it for yet as iv not even seen it in game. looking forward to it but i don't think ill be planting that decorative charging place in the hood'
My sims bills are around £3000 and she actually has a small 3 bed house... Although she has got a tiberium crystal in her front room that put up the bills by about £2000. But yes, this is really cool, makes a nice change having a kind-of petrol station, people are always saying they want to have to fill up their sim cars.
Get the UK one, guys. The UK one includes the car and charging station, the US one has the Prius from months ago.
ReplyDeleteThough it may give you a different one depending on region, you can find either at MATY.
OMG I love tove the car
ReplyDeleteThanks Joe for only linking to the GB one. ^^ It'll keep people from downloading the redundant Prius pack.
ReplyDeleteAnd I can't wait for more eco homes to be released covered in Solar panels! XD
Anybody know what it means by "Bonus EV pack"?
ReplyDeleteWhat is an EV pack?
This is awesome. Thanks EA for releasing a great bonus pack!

ReplyDeleteOh. Well that's confusing. I thought they meant "This stuff! Plus a bonus!" but they mean "This car! Plus this stuff!"
ReplyDeleteA google search for EV pack actually has two sims 3 results on the first page. It's not a popular term :p so it must mean environmental pack.
Got this off the German site yesterday...very cool and I suppose it could actually be useful since it reduces you sim's bills.
ReplyDeleteI downloaded this yesterday. I think the items are pretty awesome.
ReplyDeleteBut is it me or does the "charging station" not work for people? My sim's can't walk through the object.

ReplyDeleteI love the windmill and solar panels, they reduce your bills!
ReplyDeleteAt first I was like

I always play with money cheat, i don't care about bills.
ReplyDeleteWhere are the items in Buy mode? I can only find the car and the solar panels.
ReplyDeletewhere is the Charging Station ?
ReplyDeleteI can't even find the solar panels, only the twizy. Could someone who knows please list where these objects are in Buy or Build Mode? Thanks.
ReplyDeletei dl'd this but removed nearly all but the tiny car and the plant w/ the little light on it. just didn't fit into my game
