Sime Darby Beyond Auto, the distributor of BYD cars in Malaysia, has started posting family-themed teasers hinting at its next new model launch.

Its latest post on the company’s official Facebook page said, “Get ready for your next family adventure!”

The sole photo posted showed a family of four in the background, with a drawing on the wheel-tracked beach sand that said, “Coming soon.”

The ad is obviously alluding to the BYD M6, the three-row seat C-segment fully electric MPV that’s already on sale in Thailand and Indonesia. In Southeast Asia, the BYD M6 is positioned between a Toyota Veloz and a Toyota Innova Zenix.

Depending on variant, the BYD M6 is available either as a 6- or a 7-seater. Specifications for Malaysia are yet to be confirmed, but in Thailand, the BYD M6 is powered by either a 55.4 kWh (420 km range, NEDC) or 71.8 kWh (530 km, NEDC) battery.

The post also implied that The BYD M6 could be launched as early as December, at the KL International Motor Show, which will take place from 5 to 11 December 2024, at MITEC in Kuala Lumpur. A preview for selected customers may take place earlier.
