The electric Utility Vehicles are gaining traction in our market, which is evident from the arrival of the new MG Windsor EV. This electric CUV or Crossover Utility Vehicle has been priced aggressively at Rs 9.99 lakh + Rs 3.5 per km battery rental. Not just MG Motor India, BYD India and Kia Motors India will also launch their respective electric utility vehicles.

BYD India will introduce the new eMAX 7 electric MPV, which is nothing but the significantly updated e6 MPV. This model is already on sale in select international markets where it is called BYD M6. What's interesting is that the new BYD eMax 7 will have more features, a versatile seating option and an upgraded battery pack.

The MPV will have newly designed seats along with new leatherette upholstery to offer a more premium feel.

Design & Interior Highlights

The new BYD eMax 7 receives cosmetic design changes. It sports newly designed LED headlamps with LED daytime running lamps (DRLs), new front bumper with contoured air vents, and chrome garnishing on lower parts of the bumper. The electric MPV houses a new satin chrome trim that connects the two headlamp units. It also houses the BYD Lettering. The rear has new wraparound LED tail-lights, and a tweaked bumper with new chrome treatment. It also comes with newly styled alloy wheels.

The new MPV is also likely to receive an advanced driver assistance system with features like adaptive cruise control, lane assist, autonomous emergency braking, blind spot monitoring, and others. For safety and security, the BYD eMax gets multiple airbags, ESC, ABS with EBD, and others.

BYD eMAX 7 - Battery Specifications & Range

In the international markets, the electric MPV is available with two battery pack options - a 55.4kWh and a 71.8kWh. While the former offers a range of 420km, the bigger battery pack delivers a range of up to 530km on a single charge. It is early to comment whether a smaller battery pack option will be offered in the India-spec model.

The MPV with smaller battery offers 163hp and 310Nm of torque. The power output increases to 204hp with a bigger battery. As a reference, the current e6 with 71.8kWh battery offers 95hp and 180Nm of torque.
