Agree with you on this, Sam, and THANK YOU for being HONEST and not pandering to the manufacturers!

[bensouthall]

I love it, and will be buying one as our first ever electric car.

[GeorgeD-sd]

Thanks for the video. I think that BYD has made the mistake of delivering this vehicle on the old platform. Had it used the blade 2 on the 800V platform, it would be a competitor as I like the looks of the car and has most of the bells and whistles I would want. BTW after visiting a city in the South of China I would say that at least 50% of cars on the road are EV’s of all makes and models not even heard of in Australia. And very few petrol stations to cater for the ICE cars.

[Mochabear]

I absolutely agree with you Sam Xpeng Zeekr and the new model Y coming are really gonna kill it this year

[asfakhri]

someone in the know told me pricing will be $54, 888 before onroads for the premium. we'll get 2 models, premium and performance both with 81kwh battery with 150kw max DC charge rate.

[Cobra]

Did just watch tesla bjørn do a test with sealion 7 awd 82kw battery in running 13kw 100km passing 600 km. Before having 2% battery when stopping on a charger.

[serpserpserp]

50k and the new blade battery probably make them sell a ton. Just need those two changes.

[luisbernardo]

Nice vídeo Sam, as always. Hy from the Azores.

[michaelrutledge]

Agree with most of your comments Sam, however rating an NMC battery in Xpeng as better than LFP is a judgement based on only one aspect, power delivery, and not all the other battery attributes that make the Byd Lfp superior!

[PaRiLyZeD]

53k for the AWD Design in the Netherlands. For a lease-rider I'd say it's a good price. I had a test drive this morning and was pleasantly surprised.

Will be looking at others like the Juniper and G6 tho. Zeekr 7X was on my shortlist, but is not really priced competitively.

Currently driving a Model 3 from 2020.

[hakonpettersen]

In Norway it sells with a 91, 3 kWh Blade battery with 502 km WLTP.
The really bad thing with this car is that it only has about 320 kg payload..!
Its an elephant with its netweight of 2450 kg. Which is over 400 kg more than the TMY.

[protagonist]

This car is bigger than model Y and Xpeng G6 both inside n out and longer wheelbase. Should mention this fact.

[oIo]

Is Aion Hyptec HT available in Australia? I’d like to have your thoughts on that. I’m. choosing it over the SL07.. Thanks.

[namingshard]

awkward timing, why byd released it just right before their new blade battery?

[williamblue]

Kool more options for EVs thank for the update

[RollyTaddeo-ndus]

i purchased a xpeng G6 listening to Ludicrous feed drove from sydney to melbourne could not charge xpeng G6 on tesla chargers ????

[neynK]

Question on xPeng G6, how fast is charging via solar only mode?

[shawman]

BYD might have better dealer network than Xpeng. That is why they sell way more in China as well. Otherwise I agree BYD need a denser battery on large/performance vehicles. Surprising that they are only using LFP/. Either go for NMC or at least LMFP battery to make it competitive while we wait for Solid State battery in few years time.

Zeekr 7x, Luxeed R7, Avatr 07 and many others look way more impressive for sure.

[orza]

Disappointing towing capacity for the RWD model, only 750kg while competitors are 1500kg+.
