Sime Darby Motors, the official distributor of BYD vehicles in Malaysia, has launched the BYD M6, an all-electric 7-seater multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) that aims to redefine family travel. The highly anticipated model offers Malaysian families a spacious, comfortable, and eco-friendly transport option in the growing electric vehicle (EV) market.
Spacious and Versatile for Families
The BYD M6 features a 7-seater configuration with ample legroom and headroom across all rows. Its innovative design includes foldable second and third-row seats, transforming the cabin into a flat load area and expanding its 580-litre boot space. This makes the M6 ideal for everything from daily errands to extended family vacations.
Inside, the M6 comes equipped with a 12.8-inch rotating touchscreen powered by the BYD Di-Link System, integrating Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Rear passengers benefit from multiple charging ports and, for added entertainment, the M6 offers an optional Karaoke microphone feature, perfect for family road trips.
Additionally, the M6’s Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) capability acts as a mobile power station, providing power for activities such as outdoor picnics or mobile businesses, with built-in overload protection for safe use.
Range and Performance
The BYD M6 is powered by an electric motor delivering 160hp for the standard variant and 201hp for the extended variant. Both variants produce 310Nm of torque. Range wise, the BYD M6 offers a range of up to 530km for the Extended variant and 420km for the Standard variant. The M6 supports DC fast charging, reducing downtime during long trips, and also offers home charging for daily use.
Advanced Safety Features
Safety is paramount in the M6, which comes equipped with systems such as a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and Traction Control System (TCS). The Extended variant offers additional features like Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Blind Spot Detection (BSD), and Lane Departure Assist (LDA).
A key safety highlight is BYD’s Blade Battery, which is known for its resilience and durability. The Blade Battery has passed rigorous tests, including high-impact collisions, and is designed to prevent fire or explosions under extreme conditions.
Colours, Warranty, Pricing and Launch Offers
The BYD M6 is available in four colours: Crystal White, Ink Stone Blue, Cosmos Black, and Harbour Grey. It comes with a comprehensive warranty package, covering 6 years or 150,000 km for the vehicle, and 8 years or 160,000 km for the battery.
The BYD M6 standard variant is priced at RM109,800 and the Extended variant goes for RM123,800.
To celebrate the launch, Sime Darby Motors is offering exclusive early-bird promotions for the first 300 buyers of the Extended variant, including a complimentary home charger. The first 100 customers at the event-exclusive launch at Dataran Karnival Shah Alam will also receive RM800 in charging credit.
In addition, BYD is running a Year-End Sales Campaign, offering low-interest rates, free road tax, a home charger, and a special rebate for those who register their vehicle before the end of the month.
