Hari Ini, Yangwang, the luxury brand of BYD, secara resmi meluncurkan kendaraan produksi pertamanya, U8, di Cina. Harga awal adalah RMB 1.098 juta ($150,600) seperti dalam pra-penjualan, dan pengiriman akan dimulai pada bulan Oktober.

The vehicle’s battery pack of 49.05 kWh gives the CLTC a pure electric range of 180 Kilometer, and the CLTC has a combined range of 1,000 kilometers on a full tank of gas and full power.

The U8 and U9 models will be equipped with e⁴ technology, China’s first mass-produced quad-motor independent drive technology platform. This technology allows for precise control of the vehicle’s four-wheel dynamics thanks to quad-motor independent vector control technology.

Yangwang began pre-sales of the U8 on April 18 at the Shanghai auto show with a pre-sale price of RMB 1.098 juta. The car will be offered in two versions: the Premium Edition and the Off-road Master Edition. Both versions have the same pre-sale prices but offer different features.
