The First Model Of BYD's Premium Brand Yangwang Was Officially Unveiled

On January 5, Beijing time, the first model of BYD's premium brand Yangwang was officially unveiled and named Yangwang U8 (pictures). The U8 will be equipped with four wheelside motors, which can control all four wheels independently and achieve functions such as lateral movement and turning in place, as well as allowing the vehicle to float on the water and complete straight ahead and steering operations. The U8 is officially positioned as a "million-dollar new energy hardcore off-road vehicle", and its subsequent performance and pricing are worth watching.
The U8 is positioned as a hardcore off-road SUV, with a length of more than 5 metres and a width of more than 2 metres. The side shape is relatively square, which is also in line with the user's perception of a hardcore off-road SUV. The rear view camera is positioned on the front wheel brow and combined with the black trim below, the vehicle has a good overall feel.

The U8 is equipped with the "Easy Four Square" four-motor technology, which enables four motors to drive independently, controlling the torque and direction of the wheels independently. The vehicle has a maximum power of over 1100 hp and can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3 seconds. The front and rear motors are also equipped with differential locks, allowing the vehicle to have excellent off-road capabilities.
By turning the four wheels in different directions, the U8 is able to move laterally and turn around. The whole vehicle also supports IP68 waterproofing, and the four-wheel motors allow the vehicle to float horizontally and to perform operations such as straight ahead and turning. It will also be fitted as standard to all models under the Yangwang brand.
