Actually, it’s more complicated than that. Behind those numbers are years of research in aerodynamics, weight reduction, and energy storage.

Is it using some kinda new tech or what?

Great point TaraL, usually these powerful cars are energy hungry. Gotta hope BYD’s got some solid green tech behind this beast.

All this talk of bhp and electric power, nothing beats the sound and feel of an old-fashioned petrol engine.

I’d be interested in something more practical.

Given its specs, it could potentially redefine the luxury SUV market segment.
