BYD still promises EVs will be sold in the U.S. by 2011. BYD has made bold statements before regarding when their vehicles would go on sale in the U.S., but this time they seem to stand behind their release stating that they will bring electric vehicles to the U.S. by 2011.

Recently, BYD announced plans to sell to PHEV similar to the Chevy Volt called the F6DM for under $22,000 and they also plan to sell a crossover utility vehicle here called the BYD e6 for around $30,000. The BYD e6 is capable of traveling up to 250 miles on a single charge. For a comparison, the Volt is only expected to travel 40 miles on all electric power.

Since BYD is the second largest rechargeable battery producer in the world they have a step up on most of the competition in terms of battery capability and production. BYD’s general manager Henry Z Li said, “Battery technology and motor control are the key to this vehicle (e6), we have quite a lot of experience and know how in this process.”

This year, BYD moved to the main floor of the Detroit auto show and it did catch more attentions than before. Besides F3DM, E6 should be another bright point.

The E6 is an all-electric, five-passenger people mover that has a range of 250 miles, can be fully charged in about 10 hours by plugging into a standard household outlet, and takes only 10 minutes to charge to 50 percent capacity.
