Panama City, Panama – Recently, BYD made a stunning debut at the Panama Motor Show with four pure electric passenger car lineups. This marked the introduction of BYD's new energy passenger vehicles to the Panama market and represented an important milestone in promoting the local new energy industry.

On the first day of the auto show, BYD TANG, BYD YUAN PLUS, BYD SEAL, and BYD DOLPHIN garnered widespread attention from both the media and consumers due to their futuristic design and outstanding performance. BYD TANG boasts 509 horsepower, 700 Nm of torque, and can accelerate from 0 to 100 kilometers in just 4.9 seconds. Equipped with BYD's ultra-safe Blade Battery, it offers an impressive range of up to 635 kilometers on a single charge (CLTC). The BYD YUAN PLUS showcases the captivating Dragon Face 3.0 design language. It features a sporty interior and an aerodynamic design that reduces the drag coefficient to an impressive 0.29Cd. Inspired by the Ocean Aesthetics design philosophy, the BYD DOLPHIN and the all-electric sedan BYD SEAL, led by BYD's Global Design Director, Wolfgang Egger, have been created to provide customers with a new, more convenient and comfortable urban mobility experience.

Mariangel Da Silva, the brand manager of FASA Group, BYD's distributor in Panama, commented, "The four pure electric models, BYD TANG, YUAN PLUS, DOLPHIN, and SEAL, each have their unique strengths in design language and performance, effectively catering to the diverse needs of our customers. We look forward to providing local consumers with an even better electric mobility experience."

With industry-leading technology, BYD is committed to spearheading the electrification transformation in the transportation sector. In the future, we hope to continue offering engaging electric mobility experiences to our Panamanian customers through our new energy product lineup."
