History
Yangwang was established by BYD Company Limited in 2022 as the group's ultra-luxury new-energy vehicle brand. Its creation marked a deliberate move by BYD, then already China's largest new-energy vehicle maker, to enter the highest tiers of the passenger car market, above its mainstream Dynasty and Ocean lines and its premium Denza brand. The brand's first model, the U8 luxury off-road SUV, was unveiled in early 2023 and drew widespread attention for its e4 (Yi Si Fang) four-motor platform, which enables capabilities such as tank turns and precise torque vectoring. The U8 also demonstrated emergency flotation, a feature that became a signature talking point in Chinese media. Alongside the U8, BYD presented the U9 electric supercar, which entered production later and was positioned as a halo performance model. In subsequent years Yangwang broadened its range. The U7 luxury sedan joined the lineup, and the U8 family was extended with long-wheelbase variants. By 2025 the brand's official website listed the U8L 鼎世版 and U8L 鼎藏版, with starting prices of 1,300,000 yuan and 1,458,000 yuan respectively. These models emphasize large four-seat layouts, advanced driver assistance branded as 天神之眼 (God's Eye), the DiLink 300 intelligent cockpit, and the DiSus-P+ suspension system. Yangwang operates within BYD's corporate structure and leverages the parent's vertical integration in batteries, power electronics, and semiconductors. It sells through dedicated brand channels in China and maintains a bilingual official web presence. As a young marque, its history is still unfolding, but it has become a flagship example of Chinese automakers' push into the ultra-luxury segment.
