The BYD (EV) Thread
- Thread starter FiestaST
- Start date
BYD has absolutely taken off here in Norway recently.
The Sealion is selling with 0.00% interest, so it ends up being cheaper than many used models on the market.
People are also selling off their older BYDs to jump on the new battery technology and getting the latest releases, specifically the Sealion and the new EVO 4x4. For some reason the Tang is generally flying under the radar.
And since I sold my old faithful golf7 earlier this year and our current VW being 20yrs old and the clutch started burning (quoted R28k-40k to replace it)- and due to Iran, the dieselprice shot up to R45/L... I decided it was time.
So I just bought a 2022 BYD Tang with 407km range. We don't drive far privately and the house has a dedicated EV charger anyway... On the plus side, it was cheaper than used Tesla Model Y's and Skoda Eniaqs and just about any other 4WD SUV EV with enough space for a dog in the back.
Once it arrives and I've used it for a bit I'll drop a review of what I think of it. I still feel guilty. I've never bought a "nice" car before.
The boot space if you don't use the extra seats is bananas.
