BYD Song EV500 SUV

The all-new BYD Song features large modifications in its appearance. Dragon face, BYD’s latest iconic front end design style, embodied the most significant change in the new Song’s exterior, which looks very individualized and fashionable with the model’s large polygonal intake grille decorated by chrome trims and connected with LED headlights from both sides.

It features the same side body as that of the existing model. With dark-grey five-spoke wheel rims, the model’s sportiness is further enhanced. The model’s rear end also experienced great changes, including pulling-through tail lights and chrome trims. What’s more, the model measures 4,600mm in length, 1,870 mm in width and 1,700 mm in height, and sets on a wheelbase of 2,660 mm. Besides, the new model offers six options for one-color coating and two options for two-color coating.
