The BYD M3 DM mini MPV was previewed by the M3 DM Concept during the 2014 Beijing Auto Show, with the DM meaning Dual-Mode for hybrid drivetrain BYD models.
The M3 DM is powered by a dual-mode hybrid drivetrain, consisting of a 1.5 liter four-cylinder petrol engine producing 109 hp and an electric motor producing 150 hp, good for a combined output of 259 hp. The 0–100 acceleration claimed by BYD is 7.5 seconds. Range of the M3 DM in pure electric mode is 60 kilometers. [4]

The BYD T3 is a pure-electric mini van launched by BYD at the 2015 Shanghai Auto Show, and is the electric version of the BYD M3 light commercial vehicle.

The T3 name was originally used on a truck or commercial van version of the BYD e6 prototype. [6] However the vehicle that was finally released wearing the BYD T3 nameplate shares the platform with the BYD M3. [7]
In China, BYD supplied T3 to DHL, which provides daily logistics in the Central Business District (CBD) of Shenzhen and surrounding areas. [8]
