Shark bites: BYD continues teasing roll-out of Aussie-bound dual-cab ute

AutoExec Summary
The 2024 BYD Shark did not appear at the Beijing motor show, but BYD released four new teasers of its electrified dual-cab 4×4 ute. The images show details of the hybrid ute but do not reveal the entire truck. The Shark is currently being tested in Australia, with plans for it to be on sale before the end of 2024. The high-series models are expected to have a powertrain with dual electric motors, providing 365kW of power. The BYD Shark is built on a new platform designed for plug-in hybrid technology, offering advanced off-road capabilities. It will be available with either a 1.5-liter turbo or 2.0-liter turbo engine, both compatible with a plug-in hybrid system for an all-electric range of up to 100km. The BYD Shark will feature V2L capability and share a cockpit with the Bao 5.
