The BYD Tang is a plug-in hybrid sport utility vehicle (SUV) developed by BYD Auto. Its 18.4 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery pack delivers an all-electric range of 80 km (50 mi). The plug-in SUV gets its name from the Tang Dynasty, known as the most prosperous of all the great Chinese Dynasties. The Tang was introduced at the 2014 Beijing Auto Show.[1]

The Tang is powered by a 2.0-liter internal combustion engine which delivers 151 kW (202 hp) and 320 N·m (240 lbf·ft) of torque; and two electric motors, front and rear, each rated at 110 kW (150 hp) and 250 N·m (180 lbf·ft) in the entry-level Tang, and 300 N·m (220 lbf·ft) in the performance model. Total system output is 371 kW (498 hp) and 820 N·m (600 lbf·ft) for the entry-level model, and 411 kW (551 hp) and 870 N·m (640 lbf·ft) for the performance model. The latter accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds and the entry level in 4.9 seconds. The Tang is fitted with BYD's second generation Dual Mode (DM) system which allows drivers to switch between all-electric mode (EV mode) and hybrid electric mode (HEV mode).[1]

Retail deliveries of the BYD Tang began in China in June 2015.[2] The plug-in SUV pricing starts at CN¥300,000 (~ US$48,000) before any applicable government incentives.[3] A total of 18,375 units were sold in China in 2015,[4] and 12,366 units during the first fourth months of 2016, achieving total cumulative sales of 30,741 units through April 2016.[4][5][6][7]
