There are currently no #phev pickup trucks in America...until now. The #bydshark will be made in Mexico like the Toyota Tacoma. Here's why it could be a gamechanger! Should #ford #chevy #dodge be worried south of the border?

Come on Toyota! Where is the STOUT?
My dealer's website says "In Transit" 🤣🤣🤣A light-duty Maverick/Ridgeline fighter at $30 to 40K and tuned for fuel economy would be nice. I'm hoping Mazda makes a B-series again in this format.
Even if they make the Stout it will be like the Prius - no where to be found. If you do find one of these mythical creatures it will have a 10k market adjustment or more added.
Dear Toyota, if you have two working brains cells.... Stay away from EV pickups.
But rather give us AFFORDABLE Toyota "maverick" hybrid.
Yep, a new base Tacoma is a little bit too expensive for me.
Yes, hybrid or plug in hybrid please.
Toyota already has Tacoma and Tundra hybrid pickup trucks, right?
@@aeronYTcowith the fuel economy of a V8 f150. I think what the poster wants is one with good fuel economy.
Kirk you need to travel to Mexico and test one out for the channel
Good reason for a vacation
I want a small truck. Like small in the 90’s. Today’s trucks are so massive & most people just carry around air.
BYD next Truck will be the Baby Shark do do do do do
Starting price for $53K equivalent for a midsize is honestly a lot higher than I expected. I expected something in the $35K or at most mid $40K range (starting price of a Tacoma hybrid). Remember in Mexico a base Hilux starts at $20K equivalent so BYD is twice as much
Yet its towing and payload a lot less, no solid axle means it is never gonna be as off-road capable. It uses e-CVT rather than traditional torque converter automatic. Its 30kwh or so battery is stored not in the interior like the Wrangler 4XE or TNGA-F product but outside underneath the cab. So repairing and replacing on that battery will take longer and cost more money. Some of the biggest problem of the BYD DMO platform.
This is not the game change that some people hyped up to be
They will lower the price
@@KirkKreifels lower the price, sure but will not fix the problem of using e-CVT, not-using solid axle and the idiotic battery placement location.
Seriously, how many people buy a truck just so they can go off road.
@@talast2000 even if they do not go off-road they will haul and tow and that e-cvt is no good for that
@talast2000 Most light-medium duty truck owners neither tow nor off-road in my state.
Correction, BYD is the second largest battery Manufacturer, behind CATL. The other Countries will be in Central America, South America & Here in Caribbean. Great Video By the way though. Much respect!
to be honest, China has been kind to US brands,never looking for any troubles to those US brands，GM's boss said they made a lot money in Chinese market from Buick brand,not mention tesla and apple and many other US brands, even KFC is popular in China, and KFC in China is so funny
USA is hypocritical because Buick and Tesla are building and selling in China, but we refuse to allow Chinese brands in the US regardless of them building in Mexico where many US brand cars as well as Toyotas are built.
Biden cannot lose the union vote.
Bro Chinese brands of anything are more garbage than anything made here in the U.S also when it comes to normal vehicles and especially electric vehicles they highly lack quality control and reliability as well these Chinese made vehicles are highly dangerous.. There’s all kinds of proof like hundreds of videos showing these EV vehicles literally blowing up or burning up. China is a country full of fakery and highly poor quality labor so stop being an ignorant moron because you clearly know nothing about that your talking about and the horrible products that come out from them. And to top it off all of their current infrastructure is literally falling apart due to what’s called tofu job construction projects, where the companies are stealing most of the profits and using very little to construct major cities/building/walls and bridges thus creating major hazards and death traps because they are falling apart left and right literally months or weeks after being completed. Do your research moron everything China says and does is a lie and a scam!
Not a fan of Biden, but he is correct to incentivize the diversification of the auto supply chain. China benefits from forced labor and totalitarianism, probably the worst since WW2.
CCP can buy farmland in our country but yet we can’t do the same in theirs? who’s the real hypocrite here?
@@user-qc7dr3cd3qat the rate inflation is going, he won't get any votes.
There isn't any Central or South American electrical grid that has the capacity to handle a big move to ev's. No way.
Finally! I love this. It's about time that the big automakers stop ripping us off, and if it takes a Chinese pickup truck to do it, then bring it on. I'm sure BYD will start lowering the price once they scale up volume and competitors also announce similar products.
The US no longer runs a free market economy. Please bring this truck to Canada, then bring down the price. Toyota needs to bring over the Stout and/or perhaps a new compact pickup with a PHEV powertrain for under $35k!
looks like a top part of tundra added to an F150 body
I just want them to come so it can bring competition to the big 3 and Toyota so it forces them to lower prices
What are your thoughts on the upcoming Kia Tasman-I’m surprised you haven’t made a video on it yet
Tariffs aren't the only reason why we don't get cheap Chinese cars is the US. Prior to the tariffs, when they were still mostly stealing and copying Western cars, Chinese cars couldn't enter the market because they couldn't meet safety standards. Plenty of videos about Chinese evs randomly catching fire or airbags not deploying during collision. They're cheap for many reasons...
Remember when Samsung batteries were having problems and locked in special boxes on planes or potentially not even allowed on the plane at all…somehow that seems like people made a bigger deal about that small phone battery vs an entire car going on fire 😂.
This next part is probably pure conspiracy but I heard the Chinese government is trying to hide the details you specified in your post.
None of that applies today. Every European Chinese car is 5 stars.
@@reginald7214US regulations for cars are stupidly complex, I don’t doubt Chinese cars are the safest cars on European roads but that doesn’t mean California can’t require them to shave 2mm off their door handles to meet regulations just for that state.
@@patchouli9 I know. But being silly enough to publicly write that they aren't safe like OP did is peak ignorance. Why join him?
Well, let’s see if they can sell their cars in the US for cheap. Even with the safety regulations America has, they can try.
Heck, even if they are combusting everywhere on the planet, if they sold their cars in America and such a thing happened here, then EVERY Chinese car company would be banned from the US asap… think about it.
The US doesn’t play with things like that.
I am wondering how this Build Your Disaster F150 will hold up over time, but if anything that leaks out of the great firewall in China is any indication, its trash! Trailing arms breaking off various BYD models and their new Yangwang U9s. Cheaply built, not intended to be driven for a long time like a Toyota.
You should worry if anything ever leaks out from America.
If we start seeing these things pop up across the Middle East, then Toyota should be scared…. Until then? Nah!
This looks like the PERFECT truck to me! I hope some manufacturers take notes...
china parts and design? kaboom!
No tarifs on vehicles built in USMCA/NAFTA countries
One think I don’t really like with Chinese vehicles is they use small engines and turbocharge them. Less reliable.
BYD IS NOT THE LARGEST BATTERY MANUFACTURER. THAT WOULD BE CATL.
Doesn’t look bad but way too expensive if you are trying to compete with Toyota. There will be huge discounts on them.
Says the Chinese secret spokesperson 😂
This truck launch was meant for the latin american markets where BYD already have presence and mid size trucks are king. Journalist from all central and south america were invited to the launch well before the tariff were anounced. Just saying, not everything revolves around U S of A.
Actually moron yes it does because the U.S literally controls everything including your stupid little fake governments in South America and the rest of the world that’s why everyone goes through/deals with the U.S for anything goods/food/power and other services you forget everything goes to and from the U.S and is literally controlled by U.S corporations that hold all the cards. Your an ignorant wanker
You hit it on the nail Mr.
Correct
Sick masterchief helmet.
It’s either get cheaper cars that combust (according to news), or have to always pay up for decent quality for the rest of our lives.
I mean, even if they did sell Chinese cars in America, one single combustion of any Chinese car in America would immediately get every Chinese car company in America kicked out and banned…
Think about it. American Chinese cars would be the highest quality Chinese cars ever. America doesn’t play with things like that, even if American cars aren’t exactly the best….
Otherwise, Korean cars are the Chinese cars of America, if you get what I mean.
Yes, double standards.
Is someone creates a pickup truck with ev only range of 60 miles with a ice engine to back it up I would be happy
Kirk, Do You think it's going to be possible to Buy one in Mexico and bring it to the States? 😍?🇺🇲
Nope
@@KirkKreifels Well, No Harm in simply Asking 😎 Take Care Be Safe 😎
Chinese pickup truck LOL. that thing will explode after 10k miles
So true, that thing is like a battery bomb.
Ignorant comments, Chinese cars today are fantastic do some research,
My country has had Chinese pickups since 2006. None have exploded
I would assume Toyota would offer the plug in on the volume Tacoma TRD models. We’re all waiting for the Maverick fighter. Mind boggling Toyota hasn’t done anything.
cmon toyota wheres the small hilux champ
Gladiator will have a PHEV in 2025
The shape of the front lights look a little like a Ford F150 .
I’m not surprised it’s China
Theres a rumor that the hilux champ is set to release for the Mexican market. If the price sticks at 10k BYD still wont succeed if priced high.
Cool
Looks like Nissan still is the top dog in Mexico, they already were when Ghosn was still running the company. One of their best selling vehicles is the NP300 (Frontier) which starts at half the price, so they can't be too worried there. Given the average price of the best selling vehicles in Mexico, Toyota would be better off to start making the Hilux Champ there instead of a PHEV pickup.
Very serious question:
Being 🇨🇳 pick-up, does it come with "hardwired" geo-fencing?
It's not an add-on , it's a mandatory feature🤣
I had to lmao at the little screen under Kirk where BYD had the nerve to boast “reliable”. Yeah right, it hasn’t even come out yet. Them Chinese already making false claims.🙄 0:31
BYD F3 was sold in The Dominican Republic in 2010 to compete against Corolla and Civic and failed flat. Why would I spend $55,000 dollar for a pick up truck that will not compete with Tacoma nor Ridgeline?
2010? Good lord man, Chinese cars have come a long way since 2010. JFC.
@@reginald7214 Chinese cars have gone a long way since 2010 but they're barely there yet. Chinese automakers have learned to woo buyers with decent styling and smorgasbord of tech but with still lagging reliability and build quality, the vehicles continue to be mostly flash but limited substance.
Does BYD fly out ✈journalists to Mexico?
Lol F150 front end Toyota is fine the company that should be worried about is GM Ford and Chevy and Dodge they're always sitting on your hands.
100% tariff on Chinese made vehicles sold in the US? How many Chinese made vehicles are sold, or even for sale, in the US right now?
This is to head off a problem(competition) before it gets a foothold in the U.S.
Not many. Maybe 6. Cars like the Volvo EX30 and Polestar 4 are going to change manufacturing to Europe next year. The Lincoln Nautilus isn't an EV. The Buick Envision isn't either. Lotus has some very expensive Chinese built cars that sell a very small amount in the USA.
Home alone! I’ll never buy a Chinese vehicle!
Made in Mexico and China both red flags.
Byd is a salesflop in Europe, except in Russia. The cars are not cheap, cheaply build, not reliable. Alibaba on wheels. Don't plug Chinese cars, the are good looking, very clever marketing but not build to last.
Geez.. I what a PHEV truck so bad. One that can Tow, commute just on EV, and not have any range anxiety on trips. Come on automakers..
Cars are so expensive right now, especially EVs and hybrids. If they don't want these Chinese vehicles made in Mexico why not allow them into the US under certain regulations. Force then to unionize and put them in cities like Youngstown that have been decimated by the loss of manufacturing jobs.
This is probably because the domestic autos lobby for it to continue to price gouge the consumer rather than deal with the competition. Ultimately, the taxpayers will likely have to bail them out again in the next decade.
LOL, they will never be built here, CCP doesn’t roll that way.
A tacoma that is 50k USD plus with a 4 cyl turbo is outrageous.
Nope, this will be a pain in the neck and wallet when some goes wrong. Inpreffer gas trucks. You really bel2! Not a chance for th electric.
If Rivian R1 and F-150 had a baby, this BYD would be it. What a ripoff design. BYD confirms time and time again what a cheap copycat they are.
I’m not buying a vehicle from China 😂
They can have that junk 😂
I'm not buying a Chinese made pick up ....fall apart in 6 months
Sorry Chinese hybrids will fall apart.
BYD in Mexico = Burrito You Deserve
Very interesting. These BYD cars today are not the old Chinese cars. They are modern, nice looking and well made.
Sorry, but this is laughable! This truck may find a niche (small niche) in Mexico but Mexicans love the full size big engines loud powerfull trucks! 😅😅😅
If anyone wants to set his money on fire Byd is a great buy if not ,never buy a China brand car , never .
Calm down whitey
It's Chinese, so hard pass. If you want Chinese junk buy a GM vehicle 😅
Maybe they will sell them at Walmart
ByD 🗑️
I wish I knew
Knowing brand new byd electric cars catch fire quite often because of corner cutting, I wouldn't dare to buy one, not even at half the price.
@@Elixir9somebody's been watching serpentza and China observer. Watching China hate channels is probably a mistake, no?
Small displacement motors usually not reliable. But will see over time.
Your thinking like a American for American market vehicles overseas small displacement are the norm
BYD= buy your disaster
if there was no tariff, this truck would be a no brainer to pick over a fully loaded Tacoma hybrid TRD off road.
Unnecessary vehicle only built to make headlines and videos like this. BYD junk, nobody wants this.
BYD =trash
Gross
I really hope BYD will outsell the big 3 by 100 to 1 in Mexico and south America. Why do we have to pay twice as much for a BYD car just to keep the big 3 wages as high as possible ???????????/ ☹☹☹
China can’t even finish skyscrapers let alone a functioning computer chip
What in the fox news are you talking about?
🤣🤣🤣🤣 hybrid and EV’s
LOL at this BYD pickup potentially outselling the Big 3 and Toyota 😂 Nothing really desirable about this truck especially if we consider the premium pricing. This isn't the vehicle Toyota should wake up to and the grass isn't always greener on the other side.
BYD is crap, they have failed with their launch in Europe completely, less than 1000 vehicles sold a month in Q1. Because their cars aren't any good.
Nope, just white people not buying Chinese branded cars. But great research.
Why would anyone buy a PHEV pickup ?!?! A PHEV doesn't make any sense in a truck. A PHEV is a car to be used in a city. A pickup is not a city car.
And if the chinese say it will travel 100km that's in NEDC cycle. So EPA that would be around 50km or less. And then the fuel consumption when not charged will be high with that poor 1.5 turbo. Chinese cars are not efficient at all. Nowhere near toyota or other manufacturers.
In USA, a pickup is a city car 😜
@@KirkKreifels Still, chinese cars don't have great engineering even if they seem attractive at first glance.
Even their expansive EVs like NIO or BYD are bad. A lot worse than Tesla or others in terms of engineering.
@@Eugen-Enone of what you wrote is remotely true, fanboy. Back to Twitter with you
@@reginald7214 Are you sick ? Back to the hospital.
@@Eugen-E To date, BYD has more than 90,000 R&D engineers and has filed more than 48,000 patents worldwide, according to an announcement. As China's largest new energy vehicle (NEV) maker, BYD (OTCMKTS: BYDDF) has a large R&D team.Feb 19, 2024
