Updated BYD e6: First Drive Of Chinese Electric Crossover

Impossible to evaluate any product without knowing its pricetag. An example is the Japanese cars that arrived in the 70's :they received universally bad reviews because of their poor quality, but their low prices made them superior to overpriced US autos. In a few short years their quality was way better than Detroit's. With the right price , BYD's noted "issues" become irrelevant. With a battery pack as large as this car has, this car will probably kill Leaf sales. BYD is/was a battery company. Batteries/prices are especially key to this end of the EV market. Now the big question is sticker price. Equal to the Leaf I believe will make this far more popular. Charging issues I view as ultimately non-issues - electricity is electricity.
