Build Your Dream (BYD), the rising star of electric mobility in China was introduced at Auto Shanghai earlier this year. BYD Auto’s Seagull is being touted as a game-changer for the EV industry. The 5-door hatchback is the smallest vehicle in BYD’s range of electric vehicles. But what is so special about this tiny A-segment city car and how can it challenge the giants in the US market? This is why we have penned this article. So get ready to find every little detail about BYD.

In fact I do not believe it is yet
Just posting with some comparison information vs Teslas
Wil try to include a link to a photo next
Pense ping.
Sounds like a Chicom invasion to collapse the US power grid.
Something that's easier to push than the others.
The acceleration seems ok for $11K.
How quick will it catch a garage on fire though?
Is this China’s version of the Yugo?
Sorry let me try again :)
A safe battery technology and 190 mile range - could be a game- changer indeed.
Interesting article on the same site and same author:
A Single Tesla Battery Production Causes Pollution (CO2) Equivalent to 8 Years of Gas Engine Emissions

BYD made the electric buses that Albuquerque was planning to sue. The were such absolute crap that the super progressive mayor refused them.
sue=use
It won’t cost that here
BYD has been bribing US politicians for years like Newsom and Jeb Bush.
BYD’s Seagull Has Sodium-Ion Battery
For scale.
Not to worry. The auto unions will push their government flunkies to implement so many expensive “safety features” through regulation that the vehicle will become unaffordable.
A lightweight micro car slicing it up with American pickups and SUVs. And somehow, I doubt it will be sold for 11,400 in America or pass the massive DOT safety rules.
Mostly legitimately, but also due to political corruption in defense of Autoworkers who will oppose it tooth and nail.
You never had an Abarth Yogo, a 124 spider or even sport coupe.
Certainly no lancias or a ferrari dino
whatever
Thanks
I am trying to learn how to paste that (I knew a long time ago) but still working on exactly how.

“Could Revolutionize the US Market”
“Touted as a game-changer for the EV industry”
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I wo’t believe it until the BOOM and BLOCKBUSTER superlatives are used
