Scoop! Previous-gen BYD e6 electric MPV spotted in India

This version of the BYD e6 uses a 120 hp electric motor and is said to have a maximum range of 400 km.

China-based BYD has been testing its 'e6' electric MPV in India for quite some time. We have now received images of the previous generation e6, which was recently spotted in Chennai.

This generation of the BYD e6 does look quite outdated, compared to the new model. It has a boxy exterior that reminds us of the Land Rover Freelander, while the rear seems to be inspired by the Toyota Celica.

Grey plastics adorn the interior. The instrument cluster is located in the centre, which unfortunately is hidden by the shadow. The centre console looks oddly similar to that of the Maruti Suzuki Baleno.

This version of the BYD e6 uses a 120 hp electric motor. It is powered by an 80 kWh battery that is said to offer a maximum range of 400 km.

Thanks to the Team-BHP fan (he prefers to remain anonymous) who sent these images in. Heartfelt gratitude for sharing them with other enthusiasts via this Team-BHP share page!
