>> the bloody tough competition in China that is called dumping, and it won't last long, the goal is to gain market share

as much as i love toyota i agree. this should wake them up

Agreed..

wake-up call for Toyota and other JP car makers

@@caljeff2427they are still dreaming, look at the new Toyota ev the interior is so cheap , hard plastic and piano black plastic everywhere and it cost 70k

Yes both blockbuster Cars in China this year Xiaomi Su7 and Onvo L60 both use BYD blade batteries

are you living in a bag??

Japan stuck to the past.... Making the best quality hard plastic instead of other materials

May i ask why 15-month to wait？

@@coalex9114 in short supply

lol i've waited more than 8 months and still on 1 and half waiting list and i said to myself fk it. i got the Tesla Y now. Did all my research for many months to decide if an EV worth it. And i can say is bloody damn worth it. Save me fuel almost 5grands a year base on $2 petrol liter if i am driving almost 1000 km per week. so much fun. And was hoping BYD SEAL U EV coming in but couldnt wait so got the Tesla Y. If BYD SEAL EV arrive early this year i may have waited and get that car. The review in overseas in China and EU are astonishing. And this is Sealion 6 PHEV... OUtlander PHEV is nice.. but too expensives over 70 grands + and this Sealion best value!

​@@yinghanhe2045he is talking about Sea Lion 07 EV, a completely different suv than Sealion 6

@@yinghanhe2045 review is sealion 6

we are doing the same

Don't confuse the Sealion 6 (hybrid only on an old platform PHEV) with Sea Lion 07. The first competes with Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. The latter is a brand new EV that competes with Tesla model Y. BYD do not sell HEVs that compete with Rav4.

"disagree with the portrait format of the screen obscuring vision - it is ideal for the navigation app and Spotify playlist" Spot on... Totally agree.

Obviously, China manufacturers have experienced fierce competition, and they are not afraid of any rivals.

I'm looking to buy BYD too, previously liked Toyota

just curious what is making you want to sell your rav4 Hybrid ?

@@davedonnelly8681 It will be 5 years old in 2025. When the warranty runs out the Totoya dealer will turn into a stealer just like Honda. Also I am sick of the firm ride (over speed humps especially) and lousy NVH especially the unrefined noisy engine which spoils the very good JBL sound system.

@@nostradamus2642 thanks for your honest response. It’s usually pretty hard for people to critique the rav4. All the best with your car shopping

@@davedonnelly8681 The RAV4 still isn't a bad car. Turned away from one dealership (told no hybrids available in any model and likely for many months). Then literally walked into another dealership on the day (early 2020), they were just allocated like 10 cars from HQ. I took the last one available and received the car 2 months later (when the waiting list was easily 12 months). I still laugh about that.

@@nostradamus2642 its fascinating the wait times for the rav. It’s great that a vehicle like that exists. Cheap to maintain, cheap to run, parts easy to obtain, good resale value. I feel byd has a long way to go before it offers those features mentioned. In saying that byd is going strength to strength at the moment and I can see why some one would buy it over a Toyota.

Byd created plug in Hybrids

Road noise is noise from the road

Road noise is the road crying from the pain of being driven over by a motor vehicle.

Yes, most vehicles impress on test drives, but I'm very curious to hear more about BYD as they age, and how owners find the dealer support for spare parts etc.

1. BYD's warranty is middling. Not as good as Kia's but better than Tesla's. 2. Resale value - yep, no one knows but we can assume worse than a Toyota. But Toyota don't even sell their PHEV variants in Australia because of our lack of emission standards. If they did they'd be a lot more expensive than the BYD. 3. Reliability - if their EVs are anything to go by, very reliable but once again, no data points for PHEVs. 4. After sales support - pretty much non existent for every vehicle manufacturer, BYD no different. If you mean dealers then pretty much the same as some other brands like Nissan. 5. No spare wheel - well neither does it's main competitor the Outlander or any PHEV for that matter except for the Range Rover Sport but that's a different price bracket and size. It's much cheaper than the Outlander so we'll have to see if it catches on. I owned an Outlander PHEV for 8 years. Very reliable but if I was still in the market for that size vehicle it would be tempting.

Yep for example, despite having a 6 year warranty, the shock absorbers (!!) and multi media system are only covered for 3 years

if aussie dealers keep bringing in chinese cars, i am sure resale value of every manufacturer will drop drastically, because there were no competitions at all for decades in australia, jp brands have been the dominant force for too long, that's the biggest contribution to high resale values.

& is there a cover for the sunroof ?

In China, BYD recommend 91 RON for all cars including turbo.

95 RON for both models But with 1.1-1.4 L/100km that's nothing

​@@xfsfkahrs The brochure in Australia recommends 95 RON octane as a minimum.

Non turbocharger E10. Turbo 95.

But if your commute is not far, you don't need to fill up very often. Just charge it at home.

the difference between a hybrid and a phev is not much , it's just a bigger battery which shouldn't be much

Sounds like smart business to me. Volume sales > somewhat niche market (hybrid/EV). Hyundai achieved similar going back to the mid-late 90's $9,999 Excel. The vehicles they have now are reaping the rewards.

Bruh you might be wrong. First of all, from the gross cost perspective, the current LFP batteries on vehicles are no longer that expensive, compared with those small but with high discharge rate batteries on Japanese hybrids. Plus, BYD's phev gets rid of the gearbox. Instead, it has a very simple eCVT that only handles highway situations for the aim of fuel efficiency. 2nd, users' perspective. Larger battery packs can fully cover the daily work routine of the majority of us. It's also good for outdoor stuff like camping as well cuz it has the v2l feature, and has substantial 3.3kW capacity, some has 6.6kw. 3rd, car itself. Larger battery packs die slower. (app. 3000 times of full 0-100% charing will kill it, which is roughly 300,000km pure ev range)

wr

😂😂

Yeah time to short Toyota stock, fr

That's a bit misleading. But it actually is 4-5l/100km when you totally run out of its battery. While 0l/100km when it's on pure ev mode. So it becomes 1.1l/100km under some sort of test standard.

@@sean9045 yesterday May 28 they launched the 海豹06 DMi, it's 2.5L/100KM through 5 different road tests

In fact Tesla prices are dropping in Australia to move stock; as their sales have plummeted. Car prices are advertised in Australia before onroad costs - standard practice. Do your research.

Complete bullcrap toyota prices are advertised on their website for 54k plus on road eg. For NSW is around 58K drive away yet the car cost 73k+

They take your deposit, claim the interest on your money. then 6months later give you an email saying your order can not be fulfilled.

Toyota is the biggest scam company with$ 220 billion USD in debt and begging BYD for their hybrid technology. Your next Toyota will be a re badged BYD that you pay double in price.

@@amjedali5164 Why do you think Tesla prices are dropping like a stone, worldwide; they have excess stock that is not moving. I've been quoted $61k by a dealer in Melbourne area for a RAV-4 Cruiser AWD hybrid; with delivery in 6 months maximum. Yes, there are a few (less than 5) identical cars advertised online by individual Toyota dealers (not supported by Toyota head-office) for $10k over retail price; some people are not prepared to wait 6 months and are prepared to pay a premium. I've paid a $1000 refundable deposit; if not delivered in 6 months they will refund the deposit - simple deal.

Disagree, RAV-4 hybrid will continue to dominate the mid-size SUV sector for many more years.

Toyota is nothing like Apple. Toyota sucks at design, has mostly uninspiring products and can’t innovate.

except that apple is going to use dmi tech

so it’s still build your dream then

yeah I wondered the same. Then I learn the chief designer of BYD used to design for VW’s. pretty much he takes a page from his own books 😅

There are hundred thousand of byd EV taxi, some of them mile age over 1 million, there are still running

It does, do your research.

@@Richard-sl8we you sure about that? BYD is a shortening for Biyadi Electronics - the original name of the company. In fact, the *original* name was Yadi Electronics, but old mate Wang added “Bi” to make the company appear sooner in alphabetical lists. Build Your Dreams was an acronym they came up with as, at the time, they thought westeners would think that was cool. When they realised it was just pure cringe, they stopped putting “Build Your Dreams” on the back of the cars. You do your research.

Because much like the old Cayenne, it also has four wheels.

Because some designers previously worked at Porsche, they brought over some design inspirations.

How ???

which Japanese PHEV is priced similarly?

so you want chinese car more expensive than japanese cars?

So EU should not be too worried about them coming into their market. No one will buy a fire coffin. No need to impose more tariffs to protect their own brands. US just increased their tariff to 100% for a good reason. These fire coffins will decimate their car industry without it.

new buese made with blade battery.... no more fire risks

funny thing is that watch some dumb propaganda videos and using it to judge, same as so many videos saying US is going down..all these are just stupid pointless videos lol also you think german and japanese cars dont have china made component lol
