BYD eMAX 7 Interior And Exterior Upgrades
The BYD eMAX 7 gets a rotating 12.8-inch infotainment system, which is significantly larger than the 10.1-inch screen on the e6 MPV (but the instrument cluster remains the same). Further, the vehicle ships with soft-touch materials all around the dashboard. Users also get two wireless charging pads, a new drive selector lever, and a revised steering wheel with a three-spoke design.
The BYD eMAX 7 Superior gets all the fancy new additions, like a panoramic sunroof, powered/ventilated front seats, frameless vipers, and roof rails. On the other hand, the Premium variant gets manually adjustable seats with no ventilation. Nonetheless, features like one-touch up/down windows, rear AC vents, and keyless start/stop are standard on both trims.
On the outside, the eMAX 7 doesn’t look much different from the e6 MPV. On the front, there is the wing-like headlamp and front-grill design. The cuts and releases on the sides of the front bumper run across the length of the car, giving it a sporty look. The side profile of the eMAX 7 is dominated by the 17-inch alloy wheels and the chrome garnish on the windows. Finally, the rear panel has a full-width tail lamp.
BYD eMAX 7 Safety Features
Standard safety features on the Premium and Superior models include six airbags, an anti-brake locking system (ABS), electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD), traction control (TC), electronic stability control (ESC), and a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). Further, the MPV ships with all four disk brakes and a 360-degree camera system.
The Superior variant also comes with Level 2 ADAS features.
