BYD, one of the world's biggest EV manufacturers, in June 2020 intends to launch in China its all-new model, the BYD Han, equipped with the all-new Blade Battery - lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) cells in cell-to-pack (CTP) version.
Here we can see one of the first previews of this great looking, sporty sedan, which will be available in an all-electric and a plug-in hybrid version.
As in the case of other new BYD's for more than a year, the car is equipped with a large touchscreen that can rotate from horizontal or vertical use, depending on need (only the entry-level version will get a fixed horizontal touchscreen).
One of the biggest bits of news is DiPilot, an all-new advanced driver assistance system (ADAS), which first to be implemented in Han. BYD's ADAS to have a separate small display on the bottom of the 2-spoke steering wheel.

According to Chinese sources, there will be two battery versions - 77 kWh and 65 kWh. The smaller battery will be available only in the front-wheel-drive version, while the bigger battery to be combined with FWD or AWD setup.
If BYD prices it attractively, it should sell in a high volume of at least 5,000-10,000 a month we guess. Maybe more, although the competition is growing, so it's hard to say.
