BYD is bringing its boxy, seven-seat SUV to Europe and the UK. The Ti 7 is now on sale in the UK, and it’s even cheaper than the Land Rover Defender PHEV.
BYD reveals Ti 7 prices and specs
The seven-seat arrangement is specifically designed for the European and UK markets, BYD said after opening orders for the Ti 7 on Friday.
The plug-in hybrid SUV is the first vehicle in the UK equipped with its DM-p (Dual Mode performance) powertrain, which BYD promises “vastly exceeds the closest competition.”
Based on its Super Hybrid DM technology, the setup uses three electric motors and a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, delivering a combined 402 hp (408 PS). As a result, the boxy SUV can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in 4.8 seconds.
