The BYD M6 is a seven-seater MPV produced by Chinese car maker BYD between 2010 and 2017. Its design was known to be heavily inspired by the Toyota Previa/Estima.[1][2]

A minor facelift was later introduced in 2013 featuring clear headlamps replacing the smoked headlamps of the pre-facelift model.[3] To view more (in designation), see Toyota Previa/Estima/Tarago.

History[edit]

Officially introduced during the 2010 Beijing Auto Show,[4] the MPV has two engines, consisting of either the indigenous 2.0 liter engine from the BYD483 series for 138 horsepower 6,000 rpm and 186 N⋅m (137 lb⋅ft) of torque between 4,000 and 4,500 rpm or the Mitsubishi-based 4G69 2.4 liter engine producing 162 horsepower between 5,000 and 6,000 rpm and 220 N⋅m (162 lb⋅ft) of torque between 3500 and 4500rpm.[5]
