help Yangwang FAQ

Is Yangwang a Geely brand?

No. Yangwang is BYD's high-end vehicle brand, introduced in China in 2023, so the supplied Geely association is incorrect. [BYD describes Yangwang as its premium sub-brand](https://www.byd.com/sc/news-list/BYD-Debuted-First-Luxury-Off-road-SUV-U8-All-electric-Supercar-U9-Under-Premium-Brand-Yangwang).

What are the Yangwang U8 and U9?

The U8 is a luxury off-road SUV, while the U9 is an all-electric performance supercar. BYD unveiled both models under Yangwang in January 2023 using the e4 electric platform.

Can the Yangwang U8 really turn on the spot?

Yes, its independently controlled electric motors can produce a tank turn by varying torque at each wheel. The U8 is also marketed with emergency water-floating capability, a feature intended for extreme situations rather than normal driving.
