@@DBGE001 they make cars from Cheap seagull to Yangwang cars so kinda like Toyota which is actually the best business model. Focusing only at the premium market won't be a good idea as people atleast as of now expect cheaper cars from CHINA
This is very natural. After all, both BYD and DJI are headquartered in Shenzhen. If the bosses get together for a meal, the problem can be easily resolved.
One of the things I love about Chinese car design is, they are willing to try anything. One of the things I don’t like, however, is they sometimes don’t know when to stop. Many of these new cars have enough design features and elements for two or three cars, but they cram them all into one. It’s a bit of a mishmash and can detract from a single coherent look.
In addition, I think German and Japanese cars are overpriced, and new competition is good for consumers. After all, they will always lower their prices.
@@spikermike2843, OMG really???? Thank you for your input. I thought for sure the Chinese auto designers were anxiously waiting to hear my opinion before they designed another car.
Wow, lots of cool tech in these vehicles. These things look great and would be nice to have in the US it they improve the EV infrastructure. Hopefully the tech and battery will last long term and the manufacturer have a strong warranty for US market.
I know it's an older car at this point, but I'd love to see you guys review a 1st generation BYD e6. Love to get your impressions on the early EV tech for BYD.
I'd like to see the current e6 tested, I would like to buy on if a can't get a baojun Cloud. They imported 16 to Australia but then stopped and bought in the atto 3 instead, I don't want an SUV.
I don't think traction would be an issue. It is a variation of its tank turn capability, where the wheels are all spinning at different direction and speeds to maneuver the car into that space. Less traction might even be a good thing since it would save on tire wear.
If that’s the case the front wheel could spin backwards to compensate for the loss of traction. Totally doable. Assuming the control system is actually assessing the traction and torque real time and not just running a preset configuration.
@KitKitChanIsaac I don't know where you got your logic from because CO2 emissions from fossil fuels are ~35 billion tons per year vs. ~1.5 million tons derived from lithium/cobalt mining per year. Put it another way, $35 billion will last for generations, but $1.5 million may not even last a year. Cheers 👍
BYD seriously needs to look at the reality that not every truck needs to be F150 sized. Light duty pick ups and "Utes" are the ideal option for EVs that can also be made affordably.
Utes and pickups aren't popular in China due to the rain and licensing laws. Pickups can only be licenced as commercial vehicles but the preferred light commercial vehicle is a van, which BYD has one in the line. The U8 is their top of the line Rangerover class premium SUV, they have smaller ones all the way down to the Atto3. It's just that they don't sell those outside China.
@@moss550 they do sell those smaller ones outside of china, in Mexico we have almost all of the models specially the small ones because of the Mexican market necessities and that applies for some European countries too
What would impress me right now is a split modular and easy to repair battery ie a battery made up of 8 modules that click together like lego. Right now, if a few cells fail, you have to take out the whole battery. Then you have the wonderful option of spending $12k either replacing the whole battery or $5k for someone to spend a lot of time replacing a few cells that cost $200.
BYD Blade batteries are good for well over a million kms before suffering degradation so not really worth considering. Batteries are getting cheaper and lighter all the time
@@geoffsemon7411 Time has a greater impact on battery aging. Many electric taxis in China have driven more than 500,000 kilometers without significant battery degradation, because these taxis are equipped with two drivers working two shifts and can drive more than 200,000 kilometers a year.
I was curious about this concept since I've seen last months to the Chinese car salon. Any info about the curb weight of this? Is totally driveable like the normal suv? I guess with around half ton less of weight compared to a regular yangwang U9 this thing must be very fast and a little more agile!
Question : Regarding the Electronic architecture are BYD EV's built like Teslas or are they more like traditional automakers? Are BYD software defined cars?
They're more of a Engineer-thinking company compared to pure software driven ones like Tesla or XPeng Huawei, etc. but their software isn't bad, but not the best yet.
find info about VW failed to build software since 2019, finally hire chinese company to build their software in 2023. not american, japanese, nor korean.
BYD employee a lot of people to build their vehicles. Tesla automate where possible. At this point in time BYD are more traditional in their manufacturing.
The other self-parking takes so long and isn’t as fast as a good driver, what exactly is the advantage of having your car back up into a parking spot when it only takes a second to a driver? Serious question. Why do people need that specific function?
I feel like BYD would benefit from having a UX person vetting their ideas. The hand-sensor also seems slow at processing and unlocking your car. How is this advantageous over a wireless key fob you can open from a distance? In times of a rush, waiting for it to register your hand seems like it takes ages. Do they have plans on making this faster? I would like to see it immediately unlock as soon as your hand reaches for the door handle or however it opens. That would be very cool and useful.
Love it, can’t afford it. Don’t think they are planning to release this down under anyway. Will likely buy Cyber truck when it comes to Australia. The current dealer of BYD sucks.
The on-road price in China is 1 million RMB, which is approximately 110k in sterling. Considering the addition of import tax, it may not be within reach for every family indeed.
That drone hanger is legit! I could envision so many use cases for that in the real world, rescue teams, remote surveying, area denial etc. 👍🏻 Any comment on how much of a fat pig the yangwang evs are? The u9 weighs more than the lucid air sapphire does and the u7 weighs as much as a ct does. Yes the u7 weighs 3,089kgs per a car china ev site released gov approval docs. And the u9 is over 2,500kgs.😂
