The next-generation BYD Tang EV is an all-electric all-wheel-drive D-segment SUV whose details have surfaced in the October 2026 China’s MIIT filling catalogue release for the vehicle. It appears on China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology filing a clear hint that the launch of this model is near in China.
Build Your Dreams, the Chinese automotive giant, is yet to confirm a date for its launch. According to the surfaced details, this full-size all-electric SUV measures 5,045 mm longer and 1,980 mm taller. This model is actually the third-generation; compared to the second-generation, it is 145 mm longer.
Not only length, but also its wheelbase has received an increase. Now, the distance between the front and rear axle is extended by 130 mm. Its current wheelbase is 2950 mm. Filling releases have also made it clear that this upcoming electric SUV will be offered with two different heights; they are 1740 mm and 1760 mm.
Core specifications revealed.
The China MIIT filing reveals that its front and rear track width is 1700 mm, and the overhang is 985 mm for the front and 1,110 mm for the rear. It is worth noting that instead of the seating layout of six or seven people that we get to see with the second-generation model, the third-generation comes as a five-seater.
The curb weight and gross vehicle weight are 2,520 kg and 2,975 kg, as per the surfaced details. Other information that has been revealed is the approach angle of 18 degrees, the departure angle of 21 degrees, and 21-inch alloy wheels as standard with 245/45 tires. The HL265/45 tires for the rear wheels will be available optionally, which has a load index of 112.
Two e-motors are available.
The China MIIT filing has also revealed that the upcoming all-new BYD Tang EV is coming with an all-wheel-drive drivetrain, getting one electric motor on each axle. The front one is an AC asynchronous motor; Dongguan FinDreams has manufactured it and modeled it as YS230XYF.
The one present on the rear axle is a permanent magnet synchronous motor, whose model is TZ205QYD; the BYD has sourced it from Xi’an BYD. Reportedly, the peak power output of the front and rear motors is 215 kW and 300 kW, respectively. The net power output is 75 kW for the front and 150 kW for the rear motor.
The combined power output is 515 kW, and the top speed is 250 km/h. Compared to the second-generation model, the all-new upcoming version is 70 kmph faster. The 88.682 kWh and 105.792 kWh lithium-ion battery packs have been revealed via the filing details.
The filing release shows that the cells are sourced from Wuwei FinDreams Battery, and work related to assembling is done by Wuwei FinDreams Battery. Details regarding the CLTC range have also surfaced. It is clearly mentioned that the claimed ranges are 730 km, 830 km, and 850 km.
Smart features reported.
Besides the details surfaced through the China MIIT filing release, reports suggest that this upcoming electric SUV will come equipped with the DiSus-A intelligent air suspension and Bosch BWA/ESP braking systems and feature DiPilot 300 (“God’s Eye B”). Reports for this intelligent ADAS suite are further strengthened with spotting of the LIDAR sensor on the front end at the roof.
Other details that we get to know through the reports are the panoramic sunroof, 35.4-inch display on the base on the windshield replacing the AR-HUD and traditional instrument cluster, and 30-inch touchscreen infotainment system that will be resizable and also features a drag-and-drop window layout allowing drivers and passengers to run multiple applications simultaneously.
