At the third edition of Experiencia E—also known as the International Sustainable Mobility Show—held at Espacio Riesco, BYD reaffirmed its leadership in the electromobility sector with a standout showcase. Featuring an exclusive stand, the brand presented four of its innovative models and offered attendees the chance to test-drive 100% electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles on a specially designed circuit.
A highlight of BYD’s lineup was the BYD SONG PRO, powered by its cutting-edge Dual Mode Intelligence (DM-i) hybrid system, designed to maximize efficiency and range. This model boasts an impressive 1,011-kilometer range (WLTC cycle) and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.9 seconds. Inside, the SONG PRO offers a functional and comfortable cabin, advanced driving assistance through the DiPilot system, multiple safety features, and airbags for all-round protection.
Another major moment was the exclusive Chilean debut of the BYD SHARK, a plug-in hybrid pickup first introduced globally in Mexico earlier this year. “We want to surprise attendees ahead of its official launch in the first quarter of 2025,” said Garcés. “And what better way than during an event that brings the entire industry together?”
The BYD SHARK features an DMO-Plug-in Super Hybrid Off-Road Platform, delivering exceptional off-road capability and a smooth driving experience. With a combined range of 840 kilometers (NEDC cycle) and 100 kilometers in pure electric mode, it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.7 seconds. The SHARK also offers a tech-forward cabin equipped with advanced safety features, BYD’s comprehensive driving assistance systems, and connectivity via the BYD App, allowing users to manage vehicle functions directly from their smartphone.
BYD’s participation in Experiencia E highlights its continued innovation and commitment to sustainable mobility, drawing attention to its advanced technology and groundbreaking models.“At Experiencia E, our electric and plug-in hybrid models will be available for the public to explore BYD’s technology and autonomy. In addition, we will launch the SONG PRO and unveil the SHARK pickup in Chile,” said Cristián Garcés, General Manager of BYD Auto Chile.
