BYD Song Plus Price: Where It's Sold and What It Costs

EV or DM-i?
The Song Plus comes as a fully electric EV (front-wheel drive, about 520–605 km claimed range in China) and as the DM-i plug-in hybrid, which is the version exported to most markets. The DM-i's electric range depends on the battery — roughly 50 to 160 km across versions.
Can you buy a Song Plus in the US?
No. BYD doesn't sell passenger cars in the US, where tariffs on Chinese-made EVs exceed 100%. US price searches show prices from the UAE, Latin America or China.
Song Plus in China
In China the Song Plus was effectively replaced by the Sealion 06 and was removed from BYD's Chinese website in January 2026, though it remains a major export model. A used Song Plus imported from China is a Chinese-market car with no local warranty in most countries.
What to check before buying
Decode the VIN to confirm EV or DM-i, the battery size, the build date and the market it was built for. In the UAE, ask Al-Futtaim to confirm the warranty (6 years / 150,000 km on the car, 8 years / 200,000 km on the battery) and any recall work.
