BYD has introduced a new hybrid estate car. We’re not sure it should have bothered…

On November 19, 2025, FAW Toyota revealed the all-new, sixth-generation RAV4 — featuring redesigned styling and a new fuel-and-hybrid powertrain lineup.

BYD Auto announced that the advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) titled God's Eye has now been installed on more than 2 million vehicles in China.

The BYD Atto 3 is a stylish electric SUV offering up to 521 km range, powered by BYD’s safe Blade Battery. Available in Dynamic and Premium variants, it features a rotating touchscreen, 5-star safety, ADAS tech and Vehicle-to-Load power. It blends performance, comfort and futuristic design seamlessly., Electric Vehicles, Times Now

Overthe past two years, Volkswagen has shifted from being a 'global standard bearer' to an 'adopter of local innovation,' marking one of the most significant transformations in its history.

Most investors see BYD as a Chinese EV powerhouse, but there's much more under the hood.

BYD launches the ATTO 8 in Mexico, a plug-in hybrid SUV with 480hp and 1,030km range. The model strengthens BYD’s electric mobility strategy.

BYD recently launched refreshes of its DM-I models for 2026. Most recently the Qin L, Song L, and Song Pro. Typically, BYD refreshes models in 1Q when sales are seasonably depressed in China. However, BYD has essentially refreshed its entire DM-I lineup out of cycle. This will let every model qualify for the revised 5% purchase tax exemption next year. It also means entry level models have moved up from roughly equivalent range of a Chevy Volt to approximately a first generation LEAF (~133 km). Meanwhile, their more premium models have increased to 200-250 km of EV-only range. Beyond the EV-range, these models use the electric motor as the primary means of propulsion. That already made them superior to ICE-centric PHEV’s that engage the engine regularly for moderate acceleration or highway operation, regardless of range rating. The new models now have enough range to cover daily driving on battery power alone, typically not needing to be charged daily.This added EV capability tends to come with upgraded interiors and additional features. BYD’s active dampening DiSus-C suspension is now standard on more models. The Song L DM-I was also updated with semi-hidden door handles, ahead of the anticipated ban on pop-out door handles in China. Features like HUD, heated/ventilated/massaging seats and onboard refrigerators come standard on more trim levels. Looking through the spec sheets on the BYD’s Chinese website, the cars have significantly improved while prices have stayed largely the same… but intelligent driving was dropped from some models.

Chinese EVs like the BYD Atto 3 shine on price sheets, but then viral videos and safety testing complicate the decision to buy.

New images shared on Chinese social media over the weekend revealed that the Shenzhen-based carmaker BYD is preparing to unveil a new version of its Dolphin model.
