The BYD G5 is a 4-door sedan from Byd, built from 2014 to 2017, as electrification stopped being an experiment and the crossover took every market. Under the bonnet: 1.5 L BYD476ZQA I4.
The story
The BYD G5 is a compact sedan that was produced by the Chinese automaker BYD from 2014 to 2017. It replaced the BYD G3 car.
What is underneath
Power comes from 1.5 L BYD476ZQA I4. It shifts through a 6 speed manual / 6 speed DCT. The wheelbase is 2670 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
Its place in the line
Its family tree is legible: it took over from the BYD G3. Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Ford Escort, the Chevrolet Camaro, the Ferrari 488 — show what else the money bought that year. Nearby in the Byd catalogue sit the BYD 8TT and the BYD Atto 2.
