BYD Auto, an auto division of BYD Co. Ltd., has started testing a new model codenamed C6, and will unveil the minibus model, the first by the company, early next year, SinoCast said yesterday, citing sources.

After six months of internal testing in small quantities, BYD Auto, China's leading electric car maker, will start the mass production of the small bus model, which is predicted to hit the market in the first quarter of 2011, the sources said.

The model will mark BYD's entry into the minibus market. The automaker is now capable of making a mini vehicle with the same quality as the Wuling Rongguang, a high-grade mini vehicle model by SAIC-GM-Wuling Automobile, said analysts.

However, the minibus sector in China is now confronted with a slight profit, and related companies are surviving only by achieving huge sales. The price will mean a lot for mini bus buyers, analysts added.

BYD Co., which is 10% owned by U.S. billionaire Warren Buffett, agreed in July to buy bus and coach maker Hunan Midea Coach for $8.8 million. BYD's first batch of electric buses may roll off the production line later this month.

The first phase of BYD's bus plant project kicked off in September in Changsha, capital city of central China's Hunan province. The C6 minibus model may be produced in this factory.

BYD e3 in sunny Sanya

The BYD e3 is a passenger-carrying (usually 7 seat) version of the pure electric T3. It is not available for general sale, and has only been produced on order for fleet use. Last November, Sanya (Hainan) Public Transportation Group commissioned 28 units as micro-buses on five public route lines. The BYD e3 is powered by a 160 kW motor producing 310 Nm of torque, is equipped with a 48 kWh battery pack, has a range of 250 km and a top speed of 130 km/h.

The cargo-carrying T3 (electric only) remains on sale, with single- or double-row seating.

Byd t3, m3

Well, this took me completely by surprise:

No prices announced. Possibly BYD India will approach government agencies which are beginning to promote electric mobility and cargo fleet operators to familiarize them with the products.

The T3 and M3 are now also offered in Nepal, Uruguay, and Singapore (T3 cargo only).
