I've had mine for a couple of months by now here in Costa Rica and I love it. I might be biased because it really was the car of my dreams, but now that I've used it so much, I'm in love with it. I had a feeling it wouldn't do good in the Autobahn, but I mean the highest speed you can legally go in my country is 100kmh in some very short highway sections, so I don't really have to worry about it. You can't go 120kmh for more than 5 minutes or you'll crash into a mountain.
The rest of the roads are terrible, and I do feel a big big difference between the Sport and Comfort suspension modes.

Indeed, this vehicle is set for a big overhaul by the end of this year or early next year. The EV version will employ motors with exceptionally high rotational speeds, coupled with higher voltage batteries and more efficient thermal management systems, all aimed at enhancing top speed and extending driving range. The PHEV variant, on the other hand, will utilize an upgraded version of the hybrid technology first seen in the Qin L model, achieving remarkable range capabilities. Both versions will feature distinct dedicated chassis, and in conjunction with BYD's recent advancements, they promise a significantly enhanced driving experience.

[Ian_Woods]

without doubt the best car reviewer on youtube

[TerbrugZondolop]

Styling is always subjective, however the materials are on a level that VW can only dream off yet people complain and moan.

Go buy a plastic Tiguan for 60k then.

[RuiChambel]

So, Chinese tax payers are subsidising car companies for the Europeans to have cheaper cars... And the EU is complaining about it? Has anyone asked the EU consumers if they prefer to pay for more expensive cars?
Also, the EU tax payers subsidise lots of European companies, to make them more competitive. Why wouldn't the Chinese or any other country do the same?

[Adamlllllllllllljjjljljjjjj]

Id happily take the softer suspension over high speed stability over 110 mph. Like people are judging this car because of that but the benefit is ride comfort. The stability was also better at motorway speeds around 60mph aswell, on a car like this, I think BYD made a good choice for choosing ride comfort and soft suspension over a firmer setup just to fulfil the needs of the small amount of people who use the autobahn or motoring journalists who prefer sports-car feel. Great video!

[larsvaneynde]

I think the rotating screen is ingenious! My Volvo's 9" portrait screen is okay for navigation but it's terrible for any entertainment while e.g. charging the car. I mean YouTube is bigger on most smartphones than on the center screen. I want this in my next car so I hope other manufacturers take an example and stop being so conservative and boring. I prefer a European car over a Chinese car but they really have to step it up if they want to keep competing.

The next generation of Tang will be released at the end of the year, with more stunning shapes, I believe you will not miss❤❤

[TomLaz]

It looks great and thanks for the review! One thing I wish more car makers would do with their 7-seater SUV is to allow us to keep the boot covers within the car. The Škoda Kodiaq does that very nicely. I noticed the BYD Tang did not have a slot to keep the boot cover under the lid with all the kit.. That would have made it perfect!

[kaanozdemir]

Even though this video is fairly new, three weeks is a long time for substantial news to happen. Turkish government just signed a 1 billion dollar agreement with BYD. BYD will build a new production facility in Turkiye that will produce 150 thousand cars per year. Also, the plant is expected to start production in a very short time, later in 2026. This will allow BYD to avoid approximately 38% of taxes that are applied by the EU to China. Smart and very lucrative solution for both parties.

[WindowsHaker]

Hello. Thank you. Could you please tell me how tall you are? I want to understand how tall people can sit on the 3rd row of BYD Tang EV.
Or please write how much space from the seat to the ceiling in the car on the 3rd row

[fabiobernardes]

Excellent review as usual! Congratulations

[ArturoBandiniWannabe]

Great review Thomas! But, checkout the right edge of the microfiber below the dashboard - at 07:51. It seems like extremely poor finish / quality....

[zayn]

Thank you Thomas, with the upcoming tariffs the chances for this vehicle arriving in Europe or US is very unlikely 😢

[alexshoneya]

EU better to cooperate with China. If China raise taxes back for EU and US car makers, it will bancrupt many of them. VW sales 40% of its cars in China. What will happen to VW if they loose that sales?

[robertowen]

I really like the way that you conduct your reviews Thomas.Never been a fan of the shape of S.U.V.s But this one has some pleasant lines. An E.V. does not satisfy my life style either, however I enjoyed your informative and fair review - I always learn something from you.Thanks, Bob.
