BYD Auto is a Chinese car manufacturer that produces a wide range of plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and battery electric (BEV) passenger cars, electric buses, electric trucks and other types of road vehicles. The company had formerly produced internal combustion engine (ICE) cars until 2022, when the company announced that it would focus on PHEVs and BEVs (collectively called "new energy vehicles" or NEVs in China).[1]
The following is a list of vehicles produced by BYD, including vehicles that are marketed under the Denza, Yangwang and Fangchengbao brands.
The BYD brand distinguishes their passenger car line-up under three "series", namely the Dynasty series (started by the BYD Qin in 2012), a line of higher-end vehicles with "dragon-inspired" designs aimed at the traditional mass markets;[2] [3] the Ocean series (started by the BYD Dolphin in 2021), a line of "ocean-themed" vehicles based on new aesthetic designs by Wolfgang Egger and the modular "e-Platform 3.0", aimed at younger buyers;[4] and the "e" series, a line of fleet vehicles oriented at commercial sales such as ride-hailing and taxi.[5] The Ocean series is further divided into two series, namely battery vehicles named after marine animals (Seagull, Dolphin, Seal and Sealion) and plug-in hybrids named after naval ships (Frigate and Destroyer).[6] [7] Dynasty and Ocean series are offered through separate sales network, namely the Dynasty Network and the Ocean Network,[8] [9] and uses separate mobile apps for telematics.[10]
The powertrain options consists of BEVs often denoted by the "EV" suffix, and PHEVs denoted by the "DM" (Dual Mode) suffix. The plug-in hybrids are further divided into the DM-i (for "intelligent") and DM-p (for "performance", for torque vectoring in all-wheel drive models) systems. The DM models are usually paired with a 1.5-litre petrol engine, naturally aspirated or turbocharged.
