The EU market is becoming a joke, after MB, BMW and others slept for more than ten years. The Chinese market alone is the largest in the world, two times bigger than the US in the second place, and BYD is selling the best cars in the world everywhere, adding more destiny countries and factories every month. Remember that BYD is already the largest automaker in electric vehicles, surpassing Tesla in BEVs, and the third brand in overall market value, only behind Tesla and Toyota.
@@ericliume While Chinese cars are selling in Europe for double the price they cost in China, the big three in Europe - MB, BMW, VW - are against this investigation. Who is doing political pressure, or maybe paying some politicians, is Stellantis, that is sinking by his own act, this is the worst automotive group in the world. While some companies can make some great models sometimes, such as Citroen and Peugeot, all the others are garbage and they aren't able to even sell in China anymore, and as the Chinese cars are arriving elsewhere, they will not be able to sell in other countries as well.

2 years ago it’d have gotten 5 stars, now it’ll get 3 stars due to lack of “safety programs”. Thank you but I don’t want my car to think, I want it to do exactly what I tell it to do, no bs software
Wuling Bingo, bigger than the Air, was just announced in the Philippines and will just cost US$14-17k. Still more expensive than the Chinese price but is cheaper than the Air in your country.
@@allwheeldrivesn Everyone drives fast here, the lifestyle is fast paced in Texas and the speed limits are treated as a suggested. Its literally 30mph in my surbuban neighborhood. The roads are wide and we have feeder roads connected right between businesses and the highway. Those feeder roads are about 50-60mph. Imagine leaving McDonalds, and the road you are about to enter is 55mph. That's Texas
It would be a great city car. No highway speeds or long distances, but commuting in a chargeable car that costs like 12k lets you afford a second car of whatever you want
Probably. I know BYD is building a factory in Mexico. This will make their cars eligible for NAFTA and thus avoid tariffs. I assume they would make them US and Canada ready. Let’s keep an eye on them.
The people here like it the dealership, tech., parts department,banks,service department,the young people ,middle glass 😊……etc , u.s government and u.s auto industry……..nooooooo!!!!!
BYD Seagull is essentially for grampas and grammas, so they need really big screens to see anything. But you're right, grampas and grammas don't even bother to look at the screen. 🧓🏼👴🏻 : What's that big mirror for? 🤣🤣🤣
Drivable washing machine for 12k USD? Trust me bro, you can get those in china costing less than an actual decent washing machine. 12K USD is already way past that.
@@ZAR556 Yes, but most manufacturers takes preventative measures to protect the battery at all cost. Because Lithium battery fires are unstoppable. But BYD is known for cutting corners on those measures. Also it was discovered BYD sales figures in mainland China are all manipulated.
@@missakaiddamalgoda1879 no, serious all EV using Lithium Battery are fire hazard, regardless brand US brands, Europa brands, Japan brands, China brands, just search it,, i seen a video, they even throw a burning Lithium battery package into the water,, but it still on fire! Lithium fire is Chemical fire, i think it require some special mixture to kill it
If byd is serious about the european market and brings this there in the 16-20k usd starting range it would be industry changing
eu customers dont like Chinese brand，so does the local government。
I like Chinese things from Chinese firms rather than Chinese things badged by money grabbing Germans who charge monthly for heated seats..

While EU already initiated an investigation on BYD, saying BYD is selling his cars too cheap. So, EU doesn't want anything sold cheap.

0-60: “a really long time” lmao
Can't come to western markets soon enough!

@KyleRuggles Byd Dolphin which is a more expensive budget model scored 5 star in euro ncap test. They arent as bad as people think.
2 years ago it’d have gotten 5 stars, now it’ll get 3 stars due to lack of “safety programs”. Thank you but I don’t want my car to think, I want it to do exactly what I tell it to do, no bs software
This byd is the car of my dreams
You bought the car bro how is it good im planning to buy pls tell me ???
Well, BYD Han is around $45k in China and around $80k in Europe, so the expected price for BYD Seagull in Europe is north of $20k.
Still better than most brands and their ridiculous prices these days, they'd only have to deal with what? Dacia and entry level hyundais haha
sadly even wuling air ev here in indonesia cost 15k-18k usd. this byd car could be cost 25k usd here. lol
wut?
Wuling Air EV about to get discontinue in China
it still sell in Indonesia??
🤣

@@johnnyzarate3037that's amazing, they should bring bingo to Indonesian market, not the fugly air ev
Indonesia needs to bring BYD and Chinese factories into Indonesia.
Honestly, i think in today's traffic, 0 to 60 doesn't mean anything
Not in Texas
@@OfficialDoctorShades what are they running for? The quickest to get to the speed limit?

It’s so nice, but where are the crash tests ??
Search it up it does every good
Its amazing but the design is a bit weird. I would prefer a Wuling than this car
Is this water cooled?
Will this be road legal in US and Canada?
Probably. I know BYD is building a factory in Mexico. This will make their cars eligible for NAFTA and thus avoid tariffs. I assume they would make them US and Canada ready.
Let’s keep an eye on them.
In the Philippines, the seagull (or most EV cars for that matter) are STILL overpriced. Also under-specced.
20k USD IN SOUTH AMERICA
在中国10000美元拥有她😊
Why TF it is still with fwd.

Yea but how long does it last.. 3yrs!
They all have screens that are too big..

🧓🏼👴🏻 : What's that big mirror for? 🤣🤣🤣
10k USD is pretty reasonable. Similarly priced to an ICE car of that size, isn't it?
Bro a toyota Yaris and VW polo cost about 20k USD this is a STEAL for 10k.
@@grang-jc2eeI don’t think we even have Yaris and Polo here in Canada.
@@franksun4017 Yeah North America has 0 compact cars 🤣🤣🤣
@@grang-jc2ee Not that compact at least. Yaris is like tiny, calling it compact would be an understatement.
@@franksun4017 you're just fat. Yaris is not even classed as a kei car in japan.
either your choice is 40k for a basic ev hatchback or a driveable washing machine...
There are plenty of driveable washing machines for sale here in China, this is not one of those. Trust me, we've tested a lot of them.
Drivable washing machine for 12k USD? Trust me bro, you can get those in china costing less than an actual decent washing machine. 12K USD is already way past that.
Interior design is so … noisy. Not actually noisy but you know what I mean.

Lithium fire is Chemical fire,
i think it require some special mixture to kill it
Debunked many many times. If anything, BYD Blade batteries with LFP chemistry is the safest battery among all EVs.
It is likely very low, it is just burning BYD EVs get posted on social media. I also haven't seen a burning Dolphin or Seagull,
What a piece… of chinese junk as soon as the battery dies or bursts out in fire.
My Tesla battery was made in China. Should go more than a decade and hundreds of thousands of miles.
Nope! I dont want to be cremated alive😂😂😂
Not long now BYD will start producing salt battery and sell them to every EV companies. Then no EV will ever burn
