BYD Great Han EV launches in China from ~$35,000 with up to 1,008 km CLTC
BYD’s Dynasty flagship sedan starts at 235,900 yuan. The RWD Premium claims 1,008 km CLTC; Flash Charging is quoted at 10–97% in nine minutes.

BYD has put its Great Han (Da Han) luxury electric sedan on sale in China, Electrek reports. It is the brand’s first fully electric D-segment flagship under the Dynasty series, joining the Great Tang SUV.
Price and range
Three variants start from 235,900 yuan (about $35,000). All use a 102.326 kWh second-generation Blade battery.
| Variant | Drive | Power (claimed) | CLTC range (claimed) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Premium | RWD | 370 kW (496 hp) | up to 1,008 km |
| AWD Flagship | AWD | 570 kW combined (764 hp) | 880 km |
The AWD car adds a 200 kW front motor to the rear unit. Figures are CLTC (China’s cycle), not WLTP or EPA.
Charging and driver assists
With Flash Charging, BYD quotes 10% to 70% in five minutes and 10% to 97% in nine minutes — the same headline times as on the Europe-bound Atto 8, and dependent on Flash Charging hardware.
Every Great Han includes a roof LiDAR and BYD’s God’s Eye B assistance suite, with Navigate on Autopilot on highways and in cities plus remote parking, according to Electrek.
Size and kit
At 5,256 × 1,999 × 1,510 mm with a 3,130 mm wheelbase, the sedan is in S-Class long-wheelbase territory. Electrek also lists DiSus-A dual-chamber air suspension, rear-wheel steering and “zero-gravity” front seats.
We have not driven the Great Han; range, charge times and assist claims are BYD’s as reported by Electrek. There is no Europe price or date in this launch coverage.
