History

The BYD E-Vali made its debut at the IAA Motor Show in Hanover, Germany, in September 2024. It is a large delivery van designed specifically for the European market. [1] Sales will start in early 2025 in selected countries in Europe. [2]

The E-Vali took the form of a large, single-body van with a large front window and a large glazed passenger compartment. The front fascia gained characteristic, low-set lighting. In the interior, the vehicle is equipped with two displays: a digital instrument cluster and a central touchscreen multimedia system display. [3]

The E-Vali is offered with two length variants. The shorter one, with a body length of less than 6 meters, gained a load capacity of 700 kg (1,543 lb) and 13.9 m3 (491 cu ft) of transport space. The larger, 7-meter-long model gained a 1,450 kg (3,197 lb) payload and 17.9 m3 (632 cu ft) of cargo space. [4]

Specifications

The BYD E-Vali is available with a fully electric drive system in two variants. The basic 203 hp has rear-wheel drive, and the top 340 hp offers AWD. The 80.64 kWh battery has an electric range of approximately 220–240 kilometres (137–149 mi) on a single charge. The model supports up to 188 kW of DC fast charging, allowing it to replenish from 10 to 80% of the battery state in 30 minutes. [5]
