BYD M6: The first pure electric MPV in Indonesia, say goodbye to the trouble of oil prices and start a new green life!

On July 21, BYD launched the all-electric MPV named BYD M6 at the 31st GAIKINDO Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS). It is reported that the M6 model is the first MPV model BYD has launched in the Indonesian market, and also the first all-electric MPV in the local markets. BYD M6 offers three versions: standard 7-seats, premium 7-seats, and premium 6-seats. The price ranges from 379 million to 429 million Indonesian Rupiah (approximately 23,400 to 26,500 US dollars).

The BYD M6 comes standard with 55.4kWh and 71.8kWh BYD blade batteries, with NEDC ranges of 420km and 530km respectively. Under the quick charge of 115kW power, it can charge the battery from 10% to 80% in 40 minutes.

Zhao Ying, general manager of BYD Indonesia, said that the launch of M6 demonstrates BYD's focus on the Indonesian market, and it aims to meet the needs of Indonesian consumers for environmentally friendly mobility solutions.
