BYD Announces New Sub-Brand Fang Cheng Bao: A Blend of Formula and Leopard
Chinese automaker BYD has announced the creation of a new sub-brand called Fang Cheng Bao, which translates to “Formula Leopard.” The company claims that the brand blends the standards and rules of Formula with the agility and wild versatility of the leopard. Fang Cheng Bao will become BYD’s fifth sub-brand, following Denza, Yangwang, Dynasty, and Ocean series. While the name might not be catchy in the West, the company describes it as a significant addition to their portfolio that will meet the increasingly personalized needs of consumers by offering a series of unique and professional-grade new energy vehicle models.
Fang Cheng Bao Lineup
BYD has not provided many specifics about the Fang Cheng Bao lineup, but it claims that it will include everything from sports cars to off-road vehicles. The company has teased its first model, codenamed the “SF,” which is slated to be launched later this year. The SF is billed as a hardcore SUV with a boxy design and pronounced fender flares. It also features angular accents, side steps, and a rear-mounted spare tire.
BYD Chairman’s Statement
BYD Chairman Wang Chuanfu said, “Many people think that the global e-mobility transition is a revolution in the automobile industry, where vehicles powered by fossil fuels get replaced by electric cars. However, from BYD, we believe this is only a minor part of the whole transition, and a greater realm is unfolding.” The company added that Fang Cheng Bao serves as the prelude to the revolution and is designed to stay ahead of trends.
