The BYD Han has landed in the UAE as a luxury electric sedan that combines head turning style with explosive speed. Its top trim accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds, putting it in direct competition with more expensive German performance EVs. With its bold design, tech heavy interior, and impressive electric range, the Han aims to become a serious contender on UAE roads.
The BYD Han’s exterior is modern and powerful, with smooth surfaces and sharp lines that give it a dynamic stance. Its full LED lighting system includes automatic headlights, cornering lights, and a sleek middle light bar at the front. Both trims come with 19 inch alloy wheels, while the Platinum version adds bi color finishes for an extra premium look.
Hidden door handles and a panoramic sunroof give the Han an upscale vibe, while thoughtful touches like rain sensing wipers and privacy glass make it practical for daily UAE driving.
The interior of the Han feels like a high end lounge. Both Premium and Platinum trims feature leather upholstery, ambient lighting, and a rotating 15.6 inch central touchscreen. The 12.3 inch digital dashboard delivers a sharp display of driving info, while a Dynaudio sound system with 12 speakers fills the cabin with rich audio.
The Platinum trim steps it up with:
With space for five, a large center armrest, and premium dashboard materials, this cabin is clearly designed to impress.
The Platinum trim of the BYD Han features dual motors and all wheel drive, delivering a stunning 0 to 100 km/h time of 3.9 seconds. It’s powered by an 85.4 kWh Blade Battery, offering up to 565 km of range (WLTP) on a single charge.
Charging is quick and convenient:
The Premium trim is no slouch either, with front wheel drive and a 7.9 second 0 to 100 km/h time. Multiple drive modes (Eco, Normal, Sport, Snowy) adjust the car’s behavior for different conditions. The suspension system uses MacPherson and multi link setups, with the Platinum trim adding intelligent active damping for smoother rides.
