The BYD Shark 6 DMO pick-up secured a five-star safety rating from Euro NCAP. Euro NCAP described the five-star score as an overall excellent performance in crash protection, noting the vehicle is well equipped with state-of-the-art crash avoidance technology.
The vehicle achieved an Adult Occupant rating of 82% and a Child Occupant rating of 86%. A score of 74% was recorded in the Vulnerable Road Users section, while the vehicle received 87% for Safety Assist.
Stella Li, Executive Vice President of BYD, said, "BYD is a technology company, and our 120,000 R&D engineers are constantly striving to find the next innovation that can improve people’s lives. But our key strength is our ability to take these ideas out of the lab and put them into the hands of customers – to turn intelligence into reality. The BYD SHARK 6’s Euro NCAP result is further proof of how our engineering and electronics skills can come together to achieve this – and all in a pick-up that’s capable as a workhorse, as comfortable as an SUV, powerful and agile on and off road, and efficient enough to drive up to 90km on electric power alone. We know that the BYD SHARK will be yet another important vehicle in our global range, breaking down further barriers to new-energy vehicle adoption." The BYD Shark 6 features a 29.5kWh Blade Battery and produces a combined maximum system output of 436HP with 650Nm of torque.
Acceleration from 0 to 100km/h takes 5.7 seconds, and the vehicle offers a combined range of 800km on a full charge and a full tank. The double-cab layout provides seating for five people.
BYD is providing a one-year free service maintenance package for customers who make full-payment bookings by 31 October 2026.
