Some correction: 1. BYD does make ICE cars. Although they are phasing pure-gas cars out, they still offer a lot of hybrid cars. 2. In fact the Han itself has a hybrid version, that's why there's no storage area in the engine bay. It uses a series-hybrid system, where the engine turns a generator to recharge the battery instead of driving the wheels directly.

I even appreciate the seemingly bizare 1% increments on the sun roof, it would let you really dial in how much sun comes in which would be good if you have a child in the back or something. Assuming you would at some point be able to operate it with voice commands increments of 1-100 would give you much more precise control than increments of 10 or even "closed, half, full" which i feel would be the norm otherwise.

Just wanted to add something. BYD actually does sell ICE vehicles. They do have one or two pure peotrol cars (which will be removed from the line up in a few years time), and their best selling vehicles are plug-in hybrids. The Han also has hybrids versions, but the electric version is their best selling pure electric passenger vehicle.

Seeing how all these electric cars are a pretty new thing, if they built up a bit of a presence in the US, I would consider buying a BYD for the right price.

@@pethiahrjwhwywkdhwjdro You know manufacturers are trying to sell us cheaper, smaller cars from their lineup, that look like the much more expensive and luxurious models. I.e you don't have the money for the Audi S8, but the A3 looks similar from the front lol, so you get that instead of a civic. Other than that, what is the reason a brand needs to have it's distinct identity. I think it would be much more important that every model they sell to look good, instead of looking the same. I like this car a lot. Looks good from every angle. Doesn't catch peoples eye like a Pagani, but it doesn't need to either. Besides, does anyone take pictures of the E-class (or what ever Doug has) on streets? I highly doubt it. and even if you do find it generic, at least it doesn't look bad, unlike many other new cars. So that alone is a big win.

"Build your dreams." i like that! Doug has certainly built his dreams!

Only 8 mins in and already love the excitement doug has in this video. Amazing!!!

In China this car is priced similar to the Model 3 (which is a class smaller), and around half the price of an E-class / 5 series (gas version). That explains why in China it's the best selling model in its sector. Unfortunately such pricing would not be possible as an import. It should also be noted that the model tested here is last gen. Newer model has a smoother tail design and better suspension, among other changes.

BYD is but one example of a Chinese car. Then there are semi-Chinese cars. Try a NIO, Xpeng and see how they handle. A Zeekr001 is a Swedish-Chinese collaboration and how does it drive? To think Chinese equals cheap should be an outdated way to think. Because that's not the case. I'm not sure if politics will allow Chinese cars to come to the USA. Sure, some Geely owned cars are here like Polestar and Volvo, but those are Euro-spec'd cars and some may be assembled in China but to Euro specs. Lotus as well. BYD also has an upscale brand and I'm thinking they'll match German and Japanese quality and are banging on their level of refinement as well.

However, it's "blade battery" is said to be the safest in the industry, and BYD can make EVs at a lower cost than any potential competitors because it produces its own batteries, the most expensive component of an EV.

I've always thought that the stereotype of Chinese products being poor in quality is driven by their customers. If a US, and other, companies go to a Chinese manufacturer and say I want you to build this for me and I'm going to warranty it for one year, they say Yes... we can do that. If you wanted them to build something that could be warrantied for 10 years, they could probably do that as well. It wouldn't be as inexpensive, which is why US companies turn to China for manufacturing in the first place.

BYD was just the initials of the phonetic symbols of its Chinese name, which also has a funny story: it is actually rather strange and totally made-up in Chinese simply because it was easier to get the trademark since many regular names had already been registered in the economic boom in Shenzhen. They never thought they would come along this far, so they had to retro-fit a more proper brand name for its overseas markets. This is how they came up with the Build Your Dreams brand name to match the acronym BYD. Many may not remember but BYD Auto started copying 9th gen Corolla 1:1 and selling bunch to taxi fleets, that's how they stayed afloat and kept the ball rolling. The company itself started as an OEM and eventually evolved into one of the biggest lithium battery manufacturers, that's why EV makes a lot of sense to them as well, also why they are able to make 70% of the parts in house. Fun fact, you may be able to actually ride in a BYD in the states. Some municipalities purchased a few of their EV buses for public transportation system, not sure if any of them are still in service so
