[The First Year of the Mini EV] BYD's Mini EV, a Car Even Suzuki Fears / 30kWh LFP Battery - Will it Realize a Price in the 1 Million Yen Range? / A Thorough Analysis of What Kind of EV Will the "BYD Mini EV" Be? 

 

According to Gemini AI : 

This video analyzes and forecasts BYD's upcoming Kei Car (small Japanese-standard electric vehicle) electric vehicle (EV) market in Japan, citing comments from executives from Suzuki, a major Japanese Kei Car manufacturer. 

Key points discussed regarding BYD's Kei Car EV are as follows: 

Suzuki's Comment: Suzuki's President comments on BYD's plan to introduce Kei Car EVs to the Japanese market. He stated that product competition should be focused more on product rather than excessive price competition as it could lead to unproductive and unprofitable competition. 

Price and Spec Predictions: The host predicts that the BYD Kei Car EV will NOT be priced as low as many have predicted, such as 1 million yen (approximately 300,000 baht) with a 30kWh battery. He also believes that achieving such a low price will be extremely difficult for BYD. 

Battery and Performance: It is predicted that this model will come with a battery capacity of approximately 30kWh, providing a range of approximately 260 km according to the Japanese WLTC standard. These specs are similar to competitors such as the Nissan Sakura or Honda N-VAN e. 

Battery Technology: It is expected to use the LFP (lithium iron phosphate) battery type, which is a BYD strength. 

Additional Features: The passenger car model is expected to feature a heat pump.  This will help manage temperatures and increase efficiency, and may feature V2L (Vehicle-to-Load), a key strength of BYD.  

Platform: It will utilize a new platform developed specifically for Kei Cars. 

Body Style and Market: BYD is expected to launch the Super-Height Wagon, which is popular in Japan. It is also likely to be considered for the commercial Kei Car EV market alongside passenger cars.

This video is a pre-release preview, as it is expected that the BYD Kei Car EV prototype will be unveiled at the Japan Mobility Show.
