The plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, also the second model under BYD’s Fangchengbao off-road marque, has an EV-only range of 100 kilometers (62 miles) and can travel 1,200 km on a full tank and full charge. Year-to-date sales volume of the Bao 5 reached 36,449 units as of October, and BYD cut the starter price of the off-road vehicle by 17.3% to RMB 239,800 in July about a year after its launch in August 2023.
