Yangwang

BYD launched the 2026 Yangwang U7, U8, and U8L models, applying the second-generation blade battery and flash-charging technology to its most high-end products.

BYD will launch its second-generation blade battery, new flash-charging technology, and multiple models across its main and sub-brands at its March 5 event.

The Yangwang U7 will be the first to feature the second-generation blade battery, achieving a pure electric range of 1,006 kilometers.

BYD is attempting to reverse declines with disruptive charging technology and premium models amid six consecutive months of falling sales.

The updated Yangwang U7 BEV variant will become the model with the longest battery range under BYD's umbrella.

A widely circulated 12-second video, suspected to be AI-generated, claimed BYD's ultra-luxury sub-brand Yangwang would launch a flying car named Ufly.

The green exterior edition commemorates the U9 Xtreme's achievements at Germany's Nürburgring circuit.

The Yangwang U9 Xtreme achieved an officially certified top speed of 496.22 km/h at Germany's ATP test track, setting a world record for production vehicles.

BYD showcased the Yangwang U8 to local customers during a new store opening in the UAE in September 2024.

The Yangwang U9 boasts 1,287 horsepower and can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.36 seconds.
