      @@Cupid_Stunt If you have a look at the article in "Which Car", they claim; "In Mexico, the BYD Shark is priced from 899,980 pesos (AU$80,500), but local pricing should start closer to $70,000 before on-road costs - similar to the diesel Ford Ranger Wildtrak, Toyota HiLux GR Sport and Isuzu D-Max X-Terrain utes."

      @@Cupid_Stunt Yeah, bit of a bummer, but you do get V2L so for camping that will save buying and installing a battery system, solar panels etc. I guess the 1.5L is direct injected to give that kind of performance, so that brings it closer to diesel efficiency and the dual electric motor could potentially deliver diesels torque at extremely low RPM. As for longetivty, they are pretty good these days. Maybe not the 180,000km design life my diesel 4x4 has, but close enought I expect. However its all on paper ATM, so got to take it with a grain of salt until some real Australian testing is done with a 2.5t trailer and off-road conditions. Then some longer term testing. That will be very interesting.

      I'm 182cm. I had the front seat in my position when I got into the back. It was a bit tight. I'd be Ok for a short trip. Headroom was fine. It was comfortable seat. On the tyres, I did a closeup on a photo I took. Continetal CrossContact (RX?maybe). 18 inch. I couldn't find official info on the tires, so I'm not 100% sure if this is the official tire being released. But I presume it is.

    Not too much difference with ranger and hilex which have been exploring the market tens years. I think this is the first generation truck of Byd. May be not that reliable same as ranger and hilex at beginning. I have more expectation to third generation with more technology iterations. For example dmi tech may interest customers.

      According to BYD's latest news, their newest hybrid technology, DMI-5, has broken the world record for combustion efficiency. I remember it seems to be 48% or 46%. Enable their cars to travel 2100km with a 65L fuel tank, with the price at around AUD 20800 in China. So I think many families may still consider purchasing hybrid cars at present, because it's just so affordable
