BYD offers a broad range of new-energy vehicles, including electric hatchbacks, sedans, SUVs, and plug-in hybrid models. Available models and specifications vary according to the destination market.
BYD organizes its passenger vehicle lineup around several model families, with different products serving different customer requirements.
The global model range includes pure electric vehicles and Super Hybrid models using DM technology.
For buyers, the first distinction should be whether a model is a BEV or a PHEV.
The DOLPHIN is a compact electric hatchback designed for urban mobility.
Its compact dimensions make it suitable for city driving, daily commuting, and customers looking for a practical passenger vehicle.
The DOLPHIN SURF is another compact model positioned for urban use in selected international markets.
These models are worth considering for distributors targeting entry-level electric vehicle customers.
The ATTO family includes compact and medium-sized crossover models.
Examples include:
ATTO 2.
ATTO 3.
ATTO 3 EVO in selected markets.
These vehicles provide a different combination of cabin space, vehicle dimensions, and equipment compared with compact hatchbacks.
The ATTO 2 is positioned as a smaller urban crossover, while the ATTO 3 serves buyers looking for a more spacious electric SUV.
The SEAL family covers sedan and other passenger vehicle applications.
The pure-electric BYD SEAL is a sporty electric sedan.
Other SEAL models include plug-in hybrid versions such as SEAL 5 DM-i and SEAL 6 DM-i.
The SEAL 6 DM-i is also available in a Touring body style in selected markets.
This series gives importers access to different vehicle configurations under the same broader model family.
BYD offers several SUV models with different sizes and positioning.
Examples include:
SEAL U.
SEALION 7.
TANG.
ATTO 2.
ATTO 3.
Selected markets also offer DM-i plug-in hybrid SUV versions, including SEAL U DM-i and SEALION 5 DM-i.
For overseas dealers, SUV selection should consider passenger capacity, ground clearance, cargo space, driving range, and local customer preferences.
The HAN is positioned as a premium electric sedan in selected international markets.
Its product positioning emphasizes cabin comfort, technology, and driving performance.
It may be suitable for dealers targeting customers interested in larger executive-style electric sedans.
The SHARK is a plug-in hybrid pickup rather than a conventional pure-electric passenger car.
It combines electric driving capability with a gasoline powertrain and is aimed at customers requiring pickup functionality.
Its market availability depends on local distribution arrangements.
Yes. BYD's product range includes both BEV and PHEV models.
The difference is important for vehicle procurement.
Pure Electric Models
Examples in BYD's international model catalogue include:
DOLPHIN SURF.
DOLPHIN.
ATTO 2.
ATTO 3.
SEAL.
SEAL U.
SEALION 7.
TANG.
HAN.
Plug-in Hybrid Models
Examples include:
ATTO 2 DM-i.
SEAL U DM-i.
SEAL 5 DM-i.
SEAL 6 DM-i.
SEALION 5 DM-i.
DOLPHIN G DM-i.
SHARK.
This distinction matters because BEVs rely entirely on external charging for their driving energy, while PHEVs combine external charging with a gasoline engine.
The model range continues to develop, so the availability of individual versions should be confirmed before an export order.
The best model depends on the intended customer and the local market.
Urban Commuters
Compact vehicles such as the DOLPHIN and DOLPHIN SURF can suit customers who prioritize maneuverability and convenient city driving.
Small Families
The ATTO 2 and ATTO 3 provide crossover body styles that may appeal to buyers seeking additional cabin space.
Business and Executive Customers
The SEAL and HAN offer sedan configurations with different positioning and equipment levels.
Long-Distance Drivers
Selected DM-i plug-in hybrid models may suit markets where buyers want electric driving capability alongside gasoline refueling flexibility.
Family and Utility Users
Larger SUVs and the SHARK pickup can address customers with different passenger and practical transport requirements.
A model sold in China may have a different name, trim structure, battery configuration, or equipment package when introduced in another country.
Some vehicles are also updated between model years.
For example, the same model family may offer different battery capacities, motor outputs, infotainment systems, and driver-assistance features.
Importers should therefore avoid selecting vehicles by model name alone.
The following information should be confirmed:
Exact model year.
Vehicle identification number.
Powertrain type.
Battery capacity.
Motor output.
Driving range and testing standard.
Left-hand or right-hand drive.
Charging connector.
Safety and driver-assistance equipment.
Export documentation and local compliance.
