The New BYD M6 will be the next family favourite EV

The all-electric 7-seater MPV joins the existing lineup of BYD electric vehicles.

The family car is a cherished companion on countless journeys, from daily school runs to spontaneous road trips; which is why the new BYD M6 is set to elevate that experience further.

BYD has just launched its first electric MVP in Malaysia: the BYD M6. Positioning itself as a revolutionary vehicle setting new standards for electric family transport, the new model aims to provide safety and efficiency for modern families . A spacious 7-seater built with an ultra-safe Blade Battery and Intelligent Driving Technology, it ensures the highest safety standards for families.

The exterior boasts an elegant design with its aerodynamic Dragon Face styling, which enhances airflow and provides a sleek, modern appearance. The vehicle comes in four colours—Cosmos Black, Ink Stone Blue, Crystal White and Harbour Grey. 

Comfort should never be a compromise for family rides. The car is designed with comfort in every detail. It offers ample legroom and headroom across all rows. The synthetic leather seats are ergonomically designed to fully conform to the human body’s curves, creating a comfortable experience for everyone.

Family trips require a large amount of space for storing bags and other essentials, which the M6 fulfills perfectly. This includes foldable second and third-row seats that produce a fully flat cargo area to further enhance the 580-litre boot capacity—the ultimate cargo haven.  

Ever thought about having karaoke with family in the car? The BYD M6 comes equipped with a karaoke microphone feature, offering an entertaining experience with full access to lyrics when the vehicle is stationary.

They say family always comes first— the BYD M6 is built to ensure a safe drive for families no matter how far the journey. With a suite of safety features including the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), ISOFIX child restraint anchorage points, Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), Electric Parking Brake (EPB), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and Traction Control System (TCS), it becomes a complete peace of mind for parents with young children. 

This vehicle highlights BYD’s forefront technology=, coming equipped with an electric motor that generates 310 Nm of torque. The Extended variant offers a NEDC-rated range of up to 530km on a single charge, while the Standard variant provides a range of 420 km. Its battery enables long-distance travel and includes DC fast-charging capabilities, which greatly minimises wait times at charging stations

The M6 also features Vtol (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) capabilities, providing a mobile power station. Each socket is equipped with overload protection to prevent dangerous situations, such as short circuits or fires.

EVs (electric vehicles) are becoming increasingly popular in Malaysia’s journey towards sustainable mobility, with the BYD M6 being one of the first electric MPVs in Malaysia. It doesn’t hurt that it’s ranked fairly high with its space, versatility, advanced features, and fair price point. On-the-road pricing without insurance begins at RM110,500, and BYD offers warranties of up to eight years for the M6.
