Re: BYD M6 electric MPV India launch in the coming weeks. EDIT: Named eMax 7

Pricing of the BYD eMax 7:

BYD eMax 7 is the facelift for the e6 MPV
Top-spec Superior trim gets ADAS suite, panoramic sunroof
Premium trim gets 55.4kWh battery (420km range)
Superior trim gets 71.8kWh battery (530km range)

Each variant of the eMax 7 gets a battery pack option: the Premium has a 55.4kWh unit with an NEDC range of 420km, while the Superior has a 71.8kWh unit with 530km of range. While the Premium trim gets 163hp and a claimed 0-100kph time of 10.1 seconds, the Superior has 204hp and a claimed 0-100kph time of 8.6 seconds; however, both get 310Nm. That’s quite a significant step up from the 95hp and 180Nm outputs of the outgoing e6 MPV. BYD claims a top speed of 180kph for both variants of the eMax 7.

Quote:
the biggest update is the larger 12.8-inch floating touchscreen, up from 10.1-inch on the e6. The eMax 7 has soft touch materials all around, including on the dashboard panels. The centre console has been slightly revised and features two wireless charging pads, some new switchgear and a new drive selector lever. It also gets a new steering wheel, but retains analogue dials with a 5-inch LCD MID for the instrument cluster. Of the two variants, the top-spec eMax 7 Superior comes with Level 2 ADAS tech, a fixed panoramic glass roof, powered and ventilated front seats, frameless front wipers, and roof rails, among other bits. Six airbags, front and rear disc brakes and a 360-degree camera are standard on both trims.
While both trims get a 7kW AC charger as standard, the Premium's battery is capable of 89kW DC fast charging, while the Superior's pack is rated at 115kW. Like the rest of BYD's range, the eMax 7 is capable of vehicle-to-load charging.

BYD provides an 8-year/1.6 lakh km standard battery warranty, while the motors get an 8-year/1/5 lakh km warranty.

Re: BYD M6 electric MPV India launch in the coming weeks. EDIT: Named eMax 7

Very competent pricing from BYD. Slightly OT, but what Kia missed with Carnival MPV regarding pricing (due to CBU taxes) , BYD seems to have understoodd the impact of MPVs in India.

Also, does anyone know if the BYD eMAX7 is launched through CKD or CBU route?

Re: BYD M6 electric MPV India launch in the coming weeks. EDIT: Named eMax 7

Absolutely beautiful product and a great pricing from BYD. Got the MG ZS EV as a family beater in June this year and EV suits the family quite well, however now when we look for a family car like the Innova Hycross, the BYD is right in the competition to have a look for.

Re: BYD M6 electric MPV India launch in the coming weeks. EDIT: Named eMax 7

I see couple of BYD e6 in Hyderabad. These are registered with hotels or cab companies as e6 was only available for commercial registration. I have heard that real world driving range was good on e6.

The specs of eMax7 look good on paper. This can be good competitor to Hycross VX hybrid used for office transport.
What is the expected range driving in Indian weather?

Re: BYD M6 electric MPV India launch in the coming weeks. EDIT: Named eMax 7

The 72 kWh eMax7 is priced at lower with the 60.5 kWh Atto3. The only Atto 3 trim priced lower than eMax7 is the 50kWh one. That too, marginally. AND the eMax7 is better equipped than that Atto3 variant.

Moral of the story:
Atto 3 prices are about to come down soon enough. If they do, they start to encroach upon ZS EV and Curvv.EV prices.

Tatas getting squeezed from either end. Lower end by the Windsor, higher end by BYD. I wonder where they will price the Sierra, Harrier and Safari EVs. eMax7 is already selling for less than a comparable Safari ICE.

Innova Crysta (MT only) still holds the price advantage for the lower trims but Hycross will start to face the heat if BYD scales up its operations and sets up dealerships right next door from Toyota Dealers (like Burger King does with McD). There are enough volumes to be made here.

Rs. 60,000 price difference is difference for 6 seater vs 7 seater. There is no feature difference between 6 seater and 7 seater in each variant

The variant price difference is Rs. 2,40,000. For the price difference, you get (in the order of importance)
  1. 16.4 KWH as additional battery
  2. Ventilated seats
  3. Glass roof
  4. ADAS
  5. Frameless wipers
  6. Electric trunk
  7. Intelligent high beam control
  8. Metal welcome plate

You can always assume 6.5-7 km per kwh as the average of an EV. So the 55.4 KWH variant should run between 360 to 390 kms. The 71.8 KWH variant should run between 467 to 503 kms

Could be to do with CBU vs CKD. I think eMax7 will be CKD as e6 also was CKD.

Re: BYD M6 electric MPV India launch in the coming weeks. EDIT: Named eMax 7

This one seems to have a lot more bells & whistles compared to relatively barebones e6.

The e6 was available with 5 lakh km battery warranty. This one only has 1.6 lakh km.

Looks like e6 and eMax7 will continue together, for commercial & personal uses respectively.

Re: BYD M6 electric MPV India launch in the coming weeks. EDIT: Named eMax 7

Loving this sensible approach of launching and pricing vehicles one after another. Every time BYD does something sensible, I'm always reminded of what late Charlie Munger (Warren Buffet's right-hand man) thought of BYD:

"He can do things you can’t do. He’s a fanatic that knows how to actually make things with his hands. He’s closer to ground zero, in other words. The guy at BYD is better at actually making things than Elon is.”

It seems like everything is stemming from the top. Kudos to BYD on this launch.

Re: BYD M6 electric MPV India launch in the coming weeks. EDIT: Named eMax 7

Absence of the spare wheel is my oh-so-frequent rant these days. I wonder whether these learned and august auto journalists ever actually drive these vehicles by themselves over the long term and over inter-city distances. Continuing the same trend, the E6 had a full size spare but its latest avatar comes with only a puncture repair kit. God forbid if you suffer from a split sidewall or a tyre damage bigger than a pinprick

Just by law of averages, I encounter a flat tyre once a year (at least) - and this is a non-negotiable item for me - at least a space saver tyre. At least even as a paid accessory (thank you MG Windsor).

Looks great without any offensive design elements. Gives more of a Ertiga vibe looking from side. Will be good to compare dimension wise.
