BYD unveiled the Yangwang brand in January 2023, along with the e⁴ technology platform, saying that all future models of the premium brand will be built on the platform.

The Yangwang U8 off-road SUV, Yangwang's first production vehicle, went on sale on September 20, 2023, with deliveries beginning on November 24.

Yangwang unexpectedly revealed the U7 on January 10, saying the model would be a new energy flagship sedan in the RMB 1 million ($140,000) class.

The Yangwang U7 will have more than 1,000 horsepower and will push the limits of sedan performance, Yangwang said last week.

The model will be equipped with e⁴ technology to provide precise control and high safety, Yangwang said.

In addition to the U7, a new version of the Yangwang U8 has also made it into the MIIT's filing catalog.

Yangwang began pre-sales of the U8 on the first day of the Shanghai auto show on April 18, 2023, saying at the time that the car would be offered in two versions -- the Premium Edition and the Off-road Master Edition.

They differ in that the former is more richly equipped, while the latter has more room for modifications.

Only the Premium Edition went on sale on September 20; the Off-road Master Edition is currently unavailable.

It's not clear if the latest Yangwang U8 to enter the filing catalog is the Off-road Master Edition, but its page shows that the model supports options for roof drone pods, electric tow hooks, and side tool platforms.

The new U8 has three versions of weight: 3,490, 3,554 and 3,708 kilograms and supports a top speed of 190 kilometers per hour.
