Efficient Consumption, Unmatched Power, and Cutting-Edge Technology. Discover Now the Innovative Hybrid Truck from BYD That Promises to Transform the Pickup Segment

The BYD Shark, the new hybrid pickup from the Chinese manufacturer, arrives on the market promising to surprise with a fuel consumption of up to 65 km/l and performance comparable to vehicles with a V8 engine. Check out the details of this innovative launch that is gaining traction in the automotive market, according to the website Autoesporte.

The BYD Shark was officially unveiled in Mexico City at its global launch event. The pickup enters the mid-size truck segment and stands out for its hybrid setup, offering exceptional fuel economy and superior performance compared to many competitors with V6 and V8 engines.

Versions, Technologies, and Prices of the New BYD Shark

In Mexico, the hybrid Shark pickup will be sold in two versions: GL and GS, with prices ranging from 899,980 to 969,800 Mexican pesos, which is approximately R$ 274 thousand and R$ 295 thousand, respectively. The launch in Brazil is scheduled for between September and October, but the prices and versions have not yet been confirmed for the Brazilian market.

The BYD Shark hybrid truck utilizes the DMO Super Hybrid Off-road platform, an evolution of the DM-i system from the Song Plus. This system promises excellent performance on both paved roads and off-road terrains, rivaling diesel models like the Toyota Hilux, Ford Ranger, and Chevrolet S10.

The hybrid pickup is equipped with a plug-in hybrid system that can be recharged at outlets. The battery capacity has not been disclosed, but BYD stated that it can be charged from 30% to 80% in just 20 minutes using 40 kW fast chargers.

The mechanical setup includes a 1.5 turbo engine with 192 hp, along with two electric motors – a front one with 228 hp and 31.6 kgfm and a rear one with 201 hp and 34.7 kgfm, totaling 430 hp of power. The acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h is achieved in an impressive 5.7 seconds.

Fuel Consumption and Range of the Hybrid Pickup

The BYD Shark impresses with its fuel consumption. Using only the gasoline engine, the pickup achieves 13.3 km/l. In hybrid mode, combining combustion and electric motors, the consumption can reach 65 km/l. The total range, according to the European cycle, is 840 km, and in 100% electric mode, the pickup can travel up to 100 km on a single charge.

The Shark measures 5.46 meters in length, 1.97 meters in width, and has a wheelbase of 3.26 meters, being slightly larger than the Ford Ranger. The payload capacity is 835 kg, slightly below the diesel competitors, which typically carry around 1 ton.

Off-Road Performance and Advanced Suspension

The independent double A-arm suspension at the front and rear of the Shark is uncommon for pickups, which generally use a solid rear axle. The all-wheel drive system adjusts torque distribution between the wheels in milliseconds, providing excellent performance on difficult terrains.

The approach and departure angles are 30° and 19.2°, respectively. The robust and boxy design, with a high hood and LED headlights connected by a lighted piece, refers to the aggressiveness of a shark, the inspiration for the model’s name.
