Meet the upgraded 2025 BYD Song Plus EV<\/h2>\n

China\u2019s leading EV maker launched the upgraded electric crossover SUV with over 16 standard features for the same low starting price.<\/p>\n

The 2025 Song Plus EV gains a new marine aesthetic design. One of the most noticeable changes is the big illuminated \u201cBYD\u201d badge replacing its signature \u201cBuild Your Dreams\u201d logo. It also features new 19\u2033 low-drag blade sports wheels.<\/p>\n

We first saw the new design changes in the upgraded 2025 Seal EV<\/a>, launched earlier this month. The Seal is BYD\u2019s answer to the Tesla Model 3.<\/p>\n

A new \u201cblack sky sandstone rice\u201d color is available for the interior. BYD also added a 50W wireless phone charge and vehicle ETC while updating the steering wheel design.<\/p>\n

The 2025 Song Plus EV features a new smart cockpit loaded with DiLink 100 OS for Full Scenario intelligent voice and gesture support.<\/p>\n

At 4,785 mm long, 1,890 mm wide, and 1,660 mm tall with a wheelbase of 2,765 mm, BYD\u2019s Song Plus EV competes with electric crossovers like the Tesla Model Y<\/a>, Volkswagen ID.4, and Hyundai Kona Electric.<\/p>\n

Electrek\u2019s Take<\/h2>\n

BYD is upping the ante as it looks to build momentum into the second half of 2024. The new Song Plus is the latest in BYD\u2019s electric vehicle launch spree as it continues stealing market share from gas-powered cars.<\/p>\n

Starting at $21,000 (149,800 yuan), BYD\u2019s new Song Plus undercuts other electric crossovers, including Tesla\u2019s best-selling Model Y, which starts at 249,900 yuan, or around $30,500. However, it also undercuts most gas and hybrid models in its class, which are already losing market share in China.<\/p>\n

Will BYD take back the global EV sales crown from Tesla? Recent research from Bloomberg Intelligence<\/a><\/em> suggests it could happen by the end of the year.<\/p>\n
