BYD is very much on the ascent globally, and if momentum were a currency, the brand would be trading comfortably in the green. One of its latest offerings, the Seal 6 DM-i Touring plug-in hybrid, feels like a strategic move aimed squarely at buyers who might not necessarily crave an ...

We took the new DENZA B5 through an off-road course and a towering sand incline, showing off its off-road prowess. The DENZA B5 stood out immediately at the recent 2026 Singapore Motorshow, thanks to its towering height of over 1.9 metres. In a hall filled with sleek crossovers and low-slung EVs, the B5 looked less like a fashion accessory and more like something that could drive straight out of the convention ...

The Sealion 7 has become a very common sight on our roads. I have seen it at events, sat in it during other drives, and heard plenty of opinions from owners and fellow journalists. What I had not done until this point was spend proper time behind the wheel of the Cat A version (shocking, I know). This one is the Dynamic, the entry point into the range. On paper, it ...

The BYD Seal 6 is not trying to be the next big automotive flex, but rather to be a practical, functional option for sedan buyers. Once upon a time, the three-box saloon was the undisputed choice for family buyers. No nonsense, boot out the back, honest-to-goodness motoring. These days, of course, it’s all coupe-SUV-this and cross-something-that. But every now and then, a carmaker decides to swim against the current. That’s what BYD ...

The BYD Sealion 6 is not the newest or boldest SUV on the road, but after driving it, I understand why it may quietly win over many Singaporean families. It does not try too hard to be futuristic. It simply solves problems that matter. If you only have time for one paragraph: Range anxiety is gone. There is space. It is quiet, comfortable, and reasonably priced. It is the kind of ...

BYD and Sime Motors rolled out the BYD ATTO 2 at Zouk Singapore, a playful nod to the car’s own youthful energy and urban DNA. The new BYD Atto 2 is a purpose-built city car that understands our geography and our car parks. With a tight 5.25-metre turning radius, threading through multi-storey ramps and HDB driveways becomes child's play. Despite the footprint, there’s sensible space inside and a 380-litre boot, which means ...

BYD had something in store for the media last Thursday at the Shangri-La Hotel; the Sealion 6 DM-i, the brand’s first plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), is officially in Singapore. This isn’t BYD’s first SUV splash. In fact, they launched the fully electric Sealion 7 earlier this year, which makes the arrival of the Sealion 6 feel a bit like a prequel. But BYD does things a little differently. The Atto ...

With the global unveiling of five fresh models under its Ocean Series banner, BYD has thrown down the gauntlet. The important model of the bunch is the BYD Ocean-S Concept.
