The BYD e6 was the automaker’s first offering in India, and the upcoming facelift will mark its first major update since its initial launch
BYD India has announced that the facelifted version of the e6 will be launched as the BYD eMax 7 in India. While this model is known as the M6 in international markets, the India-spec version will adopt a new name: eMax 7. The “e” in eMax 7 stands for electric, “Max” signifies improved performance and range compared to the outgoing model, and “7” indicates its generation.
The facelifted MPV will retain its familiar silhouette but will feature a more dynamic and sharper exterior design. The updated eMax 7 is also expected to sport 17-inch Y-spoke alloy wheels and a modern LED tail light.
The features list for the BYD eMax 7 is likely to be inspired by the M6, which includes a 12.8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a dual-pod instrument cluster with a multi-information display (MID), wireless phone charging, a panoramic glass roof, and electronically adjustable driver and front passenger seats.
The BYD e6 is available globally with two battery pack options: a 55.4 kWh unit and a larger 71.8 kWh option. It also includes vehicle-to-load (V2L) functionality, allowing the vehicle to supply power to external devices.
