BYD Auto is a Chinese car manufacturer that produces a wide range of plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and battery electric (BEV) passenger cars, electric buses, electric trucks and other types of road vehicles.

[1]

Plug-in hybrid vehicles Battery electric vehicles Range extended electric vehicles
The BYD brand distinguishes their passenger car line-up under three "series", namely the Dynasty series (started by the BYD Qin in 2012), a line of higher-end vehicles with "dragon-inspired" designs aimed at the traditional mass markets; [2] [3] the Ocean series (started by the BYD Dolphin in 2021), a line of "ocean-themed" vehicles based on new aesthetic designs by Wolfgang Egger and the modular "e-Platform 3.0", aimed at younger buyers; [4] and the "e" series, a line of fleet vehicles oriented at commercial sales such as ride-hailing and taxi. [5] The Ocean series is further divided into two series, namely battery vehicles named after marine animals (Seagull, Dolphin, Seal and Sea Lion) and plug-in hybrids named after naval ships (Frigate and Destroyer). [6] [7] Dynasty and Ocean series are offered through separate sales network, namely the Dynasty Network and the Ocean Network, [8] [9] and uses separate mobile apps for telematics. [10]
The powertrain options consists of BEVs often denoted by the "EV" suffix, and PHEVs denoted by the "DM" (Dual Mode) suffix. The plug-in hybrids are further divided into the DM-i (for "intelligent") and DM-p (for "performance", for torque vectoring in all-wheel drive models) systems. The DM models are usually paired with a 1.5-litre petrol engine, naturally aspirated or turbocharged. [5]
