EV to take on Tesla Model 3 | Three states of tune offered
BUILD Your Dreams (BYD) the Chinese battery maker turned car manufacturer could be the biggest automotive brand you’ve never heard of.
We featured the firm’s grand plans for entry into the European and UK markets with the Atto 3 in Issue 1,744, and now there’s another model set to join the family crossover in the form of BYD’s Seal four-door compact saloon.
