BYD has partnered with DJI to release Ling Yuan, a $2,200 vehicle-mounted drone system that consists of a storage compartment and an on-board positioning module handle. The included drone (DJI Air 3S) can perform a dynamic takeoff / landing while the vehicle is moving at speeds of up to 15.5 mph (25 km/h) and can follow at speeds up to 33.5 mph (54 km/h). When the drone is running low on battery, it automatically returns to the storage compartment and can power up from 20 percent to 80 percent in just 30 minutes. A free app will let users edit

The new DJI drone system is supported on several BYD EV models, including the high-end Yangwang U8, Denza N9, and Sealion 07 DM-i.

The system integrates a drone with the vehicle, thus giving the vehicle a vertical field of view.

BYD already has a drone system on board the Yangwang U8 and has filed for variants with the system for several less expensive models.

At least 21 EV models would be fitted with the system, bringing down the entry cost for EVs with autonomous driving capabilities.
