Tesla rival launches electric supercar that can reach 60mph in under three seconds



BYD has launched an all-electric supercar that can hit 60 miles per hour (mph) in under three seconds, as the Chinese start-up seeks to challenge luxury brands such as Ferrari and Lamborghini.

The Tesla rival’s Yangwang U9, which will initially go on sale in China with a price tag of 1.68 million yuan (£184,000), has claimed a top speed of 192mph.

BYD has said the car can accelerate from zero to 100 kilometers per hour (62mph) in just 2.36 seconds, while also boasting a range of 279 miles.

This marks BYD’s latest attempt to undercut Western carmakers after it recently overtook Tesla as the world’s best-selling electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer.

BYD sold a total of 526,000 EVs in the final three months of 2023, beating Tesla’s tally of 484,000.

Across the year as a whole, the company posted three million battery and hybrid sales – which includes the company’s cut-price EVs that are now on sale in Europe, such as the BYD Dolphin.
