BYD Electric Scooter being Planned?
BYD, already a global electric car giant, looks to be planning on building their own BYD electric scooter.
There had been many rumours regarding this, previously, and each was denied by BYD themselves. But it looks like they may be tapping into a huge market. They are already the world’s second largest EV battery maker, owning 15.8 percent of the total market in 2023. The company is dedicated to EV battery technology and their in-house “Blade” battery allows high loads with fast recharging and long life compared to other lithium-ion batteries.
The company is not a stranger to motorcycles altogether since they supply the batteries to other electric motorcycle and bicycle manufacturers. However, this would be their first sojourn into producing their own branded motorcycle.
Leaked patent drawings shows a standard step-through scooter, not unlike the super popular Yamaha XMAX 250/300. It is evident to see upside-down forks, a radial mount for the front brake caliper, twin rear shocks. These renders did not include the size and power of the motor, and the battery capacity, however.
