Spotted recently on-tested near Canberra by the automotive website carsales , the Firefly is a funky five-door the size of entry-level models like the BYD Dolphin and MG4. READ MORE: Look out MG4 and BYD Dolphin! It’s a far cry from the expensive and luxurious large EVs such as the ET9 and ES7 , Nio is traditionally known for.
Should you use up more battery juice than you’d like, sling it into EV Charge and the petrol engine works as a generator to recharge the battery while also turning the wheels. The BYD Shark and GWM Cannon PHEVs with bigger batteries and longer range will make better sense to other plug-in ute shoppers, but again, that’s the freedom of choice.
And that was because the petrol engine intervened early, often and quite obviously to keep the juice flowing. It changes a lot. In fact, its pretty hard to keep up with. Since the launch MG immediately has performed a software retune which our test car featured. And try as we might there was no full derating of the battery pack.

BYD for the global BEV "crown". This is a waste of speculative juices. All this energy devoted to Tesla v. No matter who makes the most BEVs in the coming years, you won't find Musk focussed on any comparisons as between BEV-makers. He has and will always be looking at BEVs prevalence as compared to ICE, no matter who is making them.
Ford cautious on Ranger PHEV expansion as BYD and GWM plan faster plug-in roll-out READ MORE: Look out BYD Shark 6 and GWM Cannon Alpha! Ford Ranger PHEV pricing and specifications announced READ MORE: Cop that BYD Shark 6! The Ranger PHEV ran out of juice after 33km. READ MORE: Advantage China? SCORE: 3.5/5
A 61kWh lithium-ion battery pack provides the juice. Logical opposition for the Chery Omoda E5 will be led by rivals from China, the BYD Atto 3 and MG ZS EV. Claimed consumption is 15.5kWh/100km and the WLTP-rated range is 430km. Standard equipment includes a 12.3-inch 2024 Chery Omoda E5 interior.
Well you’re in luck, my friend, for not only are we getting the Ford Ranger and BYD Shark utes in PHEV form in a couple of months, GWM has locked in a plug-in version of its Cannon Alpha pickup for Australia, complete with 110km of EV range. Have you been waiting with bated breath for plug-in hybrid dual cabs?
In terms of new arrivals, the most important right now is the new BYD Atto 3, which brings a fresh value proposition to the compact/mid SUV segment. If it does well overall in Europe (which it already looks like doing), BYD will certainly later make available the smaller Dolphin hatchback also, which will be even more of a game changer.
Battery packs from BYD, CATL, and Tesla all reported having 1 million km of usable life. million pre-orders BYD claims that their Blade Battery would last for 1.2 There are a large number of established Chinese electric car makers: BYD, SIAC, XPENG, NIO, WULING, CHERY, and more. Where have we seen such numbers with ICE vehicles?
Just plug in your microwave, TV, coffee machine, laptop, fridge, e-scooter, e-bike or whatever, and the car sends electric juice their way. EVs with V2L include the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 ; Kia EV6 and Niro EV ; MG ZS EV, all electric Genesis’ and the BYD Atto 3.
Nudged them to consider the BYD. So you can get max juice out of the battery. Chatted up with a few curious cabbies and did the electric math with them. Unfortunately, both the Nexon and Tigor Ziptron are not available for commercial sales. It is a damn good Innova substitute. Poha and Aloo Paratha washed down with some lemon tea.
Also meeting BYD e6 owner! Started the day with a visit to India’s first owner of the BYD B6 car. The BYD is going to be Jay’s car now. The BYD folks use kWh per 100 km - please spare us guys and move on to wh/km.) With BYD’s proprietary blade cells, it probably is the best car in the country.
BYD , for examples, says their 60 mile range-extended vehicle can add 30 miles of range in ten minutes. They have several stations already built and plan on thousands more. One of the main drawbacks to charge stations is speed.
A simple, clean, efficient EV that wont run out of juice because of its on-board gas generator. Posted by: GSP | Apr 14, 2009 9:07:50 AM Funny, BYD (chinese) already came out with their version of the volt this year.
