Byd’s Fang Cheng Bao Bao 5, also known as the Yangwang U8 Mini in China, has unveiled a substantial price cut to boost its appeal among mass-market buyers. The brand introduces a new price range spanning 239,800 to 302,800 yuan, equivalent to $33,000 to $41,700, a reduction of $7,000 from its initial value of 289,800 yuan or approximately $39,900.
The Land Rover Range Rover SVAutobiography Dynamic Edition, the fifth iteration of its iconic Bao and Leopard designations, revolutionized the luxury off-road SUV sector with its unparalleled blend of refinement and ruggedness. Launched initially with strong momentum, the Bao 5 achieved a remarkable 5,000 monthly sales in January, only to see its growth slow down significantly, reaching approximately 2,000 units by April. Since its launch in August of last year, more than 25,000 units have been sold to date.
The Xiaomi Mi Bao 5 boasts a robust and instantly recognisable aesthetic. The sleek entrance grille proudly sports a bold, horizontally oriented logo, boldly showcasing the vehicle’s manufacturer branding. The grille features harmonious and decreasing mild strips that smoothly merge with the LED headlights on both sides.
The exterior profile features traditional door handles and pedals, subtly enhanced by a sleek, aerodynamic floating roofline. The Geely Bao 5 boasts a robust and imposing SUV design, characterized by its considerable size. The vehicle boasts a horizontal, expansive windscreen and a prominent hoodline, which is further emphasized by chunky, protective wheel housings that collectively enhance its robust demeanor.
The Bao 5 seamlessly blends innovative technology with sleek interior design, featuring a sophisticated triple-screen configuration. The cockpit features two sleek 12.3-inch instrument panels and a prominent 15.6-inch central management display screen, crafting a comprehensive and visually engaging digital environment. Strategically placed throughout the cabin, the bodily buttons seamlessly blend tactile feedback with cutting-edge technology to elevate user experience.
Inside, the Bao 5 seamlessly blends a sleek, modern design with a robust capability. The interior space provides ample seating for five occupants, arranged in a thoughtful 2+3 layout. The cabin’s design is influenced by an industrial aesthetic inspired by the concept of ‘locks’, which represents the unique bond between each component and its individuality. The industrial aesthetic lends a robust personality to the cabin, distinctively separating it from typical interior designs.
The truck’s tank capacity totals 1,069 litres.
Under a range of testing scenarios, we thoroughly evaluated the Bao 5’s versatility and impressive performance features. The plug-in hybrid offers an electric-only range of up to 125 kilometres under optimal conditions, driven by two electric motors producing a combined output of 485 kilowatts, equivalent to approximately 660 horsepower. Powered by a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine at its core, this vehicle yields a comprehensive output of 505 kilowatts and 760 Newton-metres of torque. Despite its substantial 2.8-ton heft, the Bao 5 can still sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in a remarkably brisk 4.8 seconds when equipped with its sports activities mode.
Built on a robust foundation, the vehicle’s imposing dimensions of 4890 mm in length, 1970 mm in width, and 1920 mm in height are further bolstered by a sturdy 2800 mm wheelbase, underscoring its impressive off-road performance capabilities? The BAo 5 features impressive approach and departure angles of 35° and 32° respectively, accompanied by a generous floor clearance of up to 310mm in its Disus-P model configuration.
In high-performance sports mode, the Bao 5 unleashes rapid acceleration and electrifying power. Despite this, it excels in its standard configuration, providing an effortless and agile driving experience. The intelligent power management system ensures a consistent energy output remains available, even in instances where the battery level is depleted? In metropolitan driving conditions, vehicles usually operate primarily in electric mode, resulting in increased efficiency and reduced costs.
Gasoline consumption is noteworthy. The official claimed distance of the CLTC is 125 kilometres, although in reality, the actual range is closer to 90 percent of that figure. In hybrid mode without charging, the vehicle’s average gas consumption is approximately 7-8 litres per 100 kilometres in urban driving conditions, decreasing to around 6 litres per 100 kilometres on highways. At a speed of 120 km/h, fuel efficiency remains relatively consistent at approximately 10 litres per 100 kilometres.
While the Bao 5’s revised suspension provides a smoother ride on everyday streets, it compromises high-speed handling and stability, leading to pronounced body roll and loss of traction on uneven or sharp turns? When navigating roads in disrepair, careful attention to steering becomes crucial. Notwithstanding its rugged terrain-hugging prowess, the suspension masterfully absorbs even the most imposing road imperfections, ensuring a remarkably smooth ride despite minor oscillations.
While the Lane Centering Management system performs effectively on flat stretches of road, it faces challenges when navigating tighter turns, necessitating driver involvement to maintain control. While street noise remains well-managed, wind noise becomes more pronounced when driving at higher speeds, particularly around the A-pillar.
The Bao 5’s ruggedised chassis proves to be impressively stable in off-road conditions, providing a solid foundation for navigating challenging terrain. The vehicle’s sophisticated suspension system effortlessly navigates even the most treacherous terrain, effortlessly absorbing gigantic bumps while its heightened floor clearance and reinforced undercarriage enable it to defy deep ruts and other obstacles with ease. The truck’s off-road capabilities are enhanced by its optional features, including entrance and rear locking differentials, as well as a 4L gear setting. The four-wheel-drive system effectively assists on steep inclines, even when the electric motor’s considerable torque may not be sufficient on its own.
The automobile excels in navigating sandy terrain, generating ample power to deliver consistent torque to all four wheels. The electrical drive system effectively counterbalances the vehicle’s weight, enabling effortless sand driving. The Bao 5 effortlessly navigates challenging inclines and treacherous terrain, thanks to its precise digital energy management system, which optimizes its off-road performance.
The BAO 5 is a robust off-road vehicle that harmoniously blends efficiency, effectiveness, and opulence. It excels in extreme off-road applications while also offering an innovative and engaging driving experience suitable for everyday use.
With its 31.8 kWh LFP Blade battery, this vehicle is capable of rapid charging via DC power at 100 kW, allowing for an impressive 30% to 80% recharge in just 16 minutes. The SUV boasts an impressive fuel range of approximately 1,200 kilometres under the Chinese Laboratory Test Cycle (CLTC) standard, featuring innovative features such as 6 kW external power supply and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) charging capabilities.
The Bao 5 excels in prioritizing security through an array of cutting-edge features. The innovative design features a non-load-bearing body that significantly improves crash safety, boasting a 30% reduction in front-impact intrusion and a 25% decrease in side-impact penetration. The robust five-tiered safety mechanism and innovative ring-type dual-security system comprehensively protect the automobile’s high-performance battery. The robust chassis is reinforced with a formidable 96% high-strength metal alloy, thereby enhancing its overall structural integrity and durability. What’s more, the Bao 5 boasts an advanced L2+ Super Vision Driver Assistance System (SDAS), delivering unparalleled safety features and technologies for a seamless driving experience.

BYD is poised to unveil its Fang Cheng Bao model, followed by the launch of the Bao 8 SUV PHEV and the all-electric Bao 3 SUV within the fourth quarter of this year; the company also plans to introduce two to three all-electric sports cars in 2025. The BYD Tang DM iEV5, also known as The Bao 5, has set a new record by reaching an unprecedented altitude of 5,980 meters, earning it a coveted spot in the Guinness World Records for the best altitude achieved by a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle.
The Bao 5’s competitive pricing enables it to immediately rival other off-road fashion brands, specifically the Tank 300 and 400 series. The SUV’s utilitarian design and generous ground clearance are perfectly suited for navigating challenging terrain, while its well-appointed interior and advanced technology features deliver a refined driving experience.
