The upcoming all-electric (EV) BYD e6 has been spotted on a flatbed in Malaysia. This comes shortly after the announcement of BYD’s distributor for Malaysia, Sime Darby Motors, and the confirmation of the e6’s arrival.

From the photos circulating on social media, the BYD e6 appears to be Singaporean unit, judging from the number plate holder that says ‘E-Auto’, which is a division of Vantage Automotive - a subsidiary of Sime Darby Motors.

Not much else can be deduced from the photos. It is possible that the unit has been brought in for internal tests.
