Shanghai (ZXZC)- The all-new BYD Tang EV, which was unveiled in June this year, has already rolled off the production line, according to local media. The new model's presale started at the Auto Guangzhou 2018 with price ranging from RMB260,000 to RMB360,000 and is expected to formally hit the market in December.

The BYD Tang EV features the all-new matrix-type intake grille, which resembles the armor dressed on Terracotta Warriors. The L-shaped chrome trim on both sides of the front face is much bigger than that of the fuel-burning version.

The new model has the same design as the DM version in terms of side profile, adopting the “hidden” C-pillar and D-pillar. It is noteworthy that the EV will offer the Continental tires in the size of 265/40 R22 and six-piston calipers from Brembo. At the rear end, the integrated LED source is still used for taillights.

The cleaner interior design looks similar to the Tang DM. Retaining the 2-3-2 seat arrangement, the Tang EV is still fitted with a rotatable screen on the center console and a full liquid crystal instrument panel. Moreover, the ball-shaped electronic gear lever is different from the DM version.

The new EV model is said to provide three variants based on battery range—the Tang EV500, the EV550 and the EV600. The version rolling off the production line is the Tang EV600. Powering the vehicle will be a permanent magnet synchronous generator that churns out a maximum power of 180kW, which provides the vehicle with a range up to 600km.
