Earlier this month, Lu Tian, head of sales for BYD’s Dynasty series, confirmed the Song Ultra EV was coming soon.

Lu previewed the new model for the first time in a blurred image posted on Weibo, calling it the Dynasty lineup’s first B-segment fully electric SUV.

While no other details were offered, the Song Ultra EV was included in China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) regulatory approval catalog released last month.

The regulatory filing revealed measurements of 4,850 mm in length, 1,910 mm in width, and 1,670 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,840 mm, making it slightly larger than the Song L DM-i PHEV at 4,780 mm in length, 1,898 mm in width, and 1,670 mm in height.

While prices for the BYD Song Ultra EV are expected to start at around 220,000-260,000 yuan ($31,900-$37,600), Chinese media outlet Autohome claims it will be priced around 180,000 yuan ($26,000), citing “relevant channels.”
