Both driver and front passenger seats are ventilated and heated to provide the ultimate in luxury in the front of the cabin. For the front passengers too, a large infotainment screen can be rotated in either a horizontal or vertical format to suit specific vehicle displays.

At lower light levels, strategic LED lighting can be adjusted to 31 different configurations to ensure optimum comfort.

Innovative battery technology
BYD has been lauded worldwide for the recent introduction of its innovative electric ‘Blade Battery’. Its all-new design means Blade Battery is lighter and more robust than other electric car batteries. The result represents a step-change for the electric vehicle industry. The Blade Battery has undergone exhaustive development, including nail and furnace testing, neither of which resulted in fire or any kind of explosive response. In fact, BYD's Blade Battery reached an incredibly low 60 degrees Celsius following the stringent nail test.
