BYD Unveils Hybrid Cars with 1,250-Mile Range for Under $14,000

Chinese automaker BYD claims its new hybrid powertrain can achieve over 1,250 miles on a single charge and refuel, significantly outpacing competitors like the Toyota Camry Hybrid and Tesla Model 3 Long Range. These hybrids, debuting in the Qin L and Seal 06 models, are priced under $13,800 domestically. However, due to recent tariffs, Americans may face higher costs if they wish to purchase these vehicles. Despite the optimistic range figures based on China's CLTC driving cycle, BYD's hybrids still promise substantial range advantages, potentially easing range anxiety for consumers.
