BYD has filed to trademark the Shark name in Australia for its first ute, as well as the King and King L names for plug-in hybrid sedans. The ute is expected to be revealed at the Beijing motor show in April, with an electric version to follow. The King name could be used for a plug-in hybrid sedan similar to the Destroyer 05.
