BYD offered an early look at the third-generation Tang’s interior, its flagship “tech-savvy” five-seat electric SUV.

The third-generation Tang is set to go on sale later this year, joining the full-size Great Tang (Da Tang in China) as a smaller, five-seat flagship SUV.

Lu Tian, general manager of BYD’s Dynasty series, which includes the Qin, Han, and Tang lineups, revealed the third-gen Tang’s interior for the first time.

The new cabin design draws inspiration from the control consoles of a sci-fi aircraft, Lu said, adding that it exudes “a strong sense of futurism.”

And that it does. Two massive screens sit at the center: a stretched-out 35.4″ integrated display and another 30″ panoramic screen that spans nearly the entire length of the dashboard.

As an “8-series, five-seat, tech-savvy flagship SUV,” Lu said, the third-gen Tang offers “a highly versatile space.” It will be available in two interior color schemes: Dune Beige and Amber Brown, each evoking a distinct, premium feel.

Like BYD’s other flagship models, the third-gen Tang features zero-gravity captain’s chairs in the second row. The five-seat SUV will provide over 1,000 mm of second-row legroom.

The third-generation Tang debuted at the Chengdu Auto Show in August. It’s equipped with BYD’s latest Blade Batteries 2.0 and Flash Charging technology, enabling it to charge from 10% to 70% in as little as 5 minutes.

It’s also packed with BYD’s premium tech, including its DiSus-A intelligent body control system with a dual-chamber air suspension, and its God’s Eye B advanced driving assistance system.
