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.
A rival for the Tesla Model 3, the Seal was shown last week at the Paris Motor Show having gone on sale in China at an equivalent price of around 27,000.

Firstly, modern vans are much closer to their car cousins than they were years ago. Things have moved on in all kinds of ways - from ride quality and refinement, to performance and technology. Secondly, vans are great to drive anyway!

Alpin A390
IF you're looking at the car in these pictures and struggling to get a sense of what an Alpine A390 is, you're not the only one. The A390 GTS is very much an 'Alpine' in terms of its design, but this is an all-electric 4.6-metre-long crossover packing a high-performance powertrain underneath a body that's somewhere between an SUV, a coupé, and a four-door fastback.
