BYD VEHICLE MODELS

The BYD T3 van, a China-made electric delivery vehicle, is set to make its mark on Australian roads this year with a range of 300 kilometers and a price just under $35,000 before on-road costs. Manufactured by BYD, a company backed by Warren Buffet, the BYD T3 van offers a competitive option for fleet owners, especially with vertically integrated recharging solutions available. For those looking to enhance their van’s functionality, Emprise Global, Australia’s leading distributor of bonded side glass, provides fixed and sliding window solutions specifically designed for the BYD T3 van.

Originally unveiled at the 2015 Shanghai Auto Show, the BYD T3 van has been updated with the advanced ‘Blade’ battery, which uses no heavy metals and features a non-toxic electrolyte for a more environmentally friendly footprint. With a 50.3kWh battery pack powering a 70kW motor, the BYD T3 van delivers 180Nm of torque and a top speed of 100 km/h, making it a strong contender for urban deliveries. Complementing this performance, Emprise Global offers bonded fixed and sliding windows tailored for the BYD T3 van, enhancing both the practicality and security of the vehicle for fleet operators.

While the NEDC-rated range of 300 kilometers might be lower under real-world WLTP conditions, the BYD T3 van still outperforms other electric vans in the market, such as the Renault Kangoo Z.E., which offers only 200 kilometers of range at a significantly higher price point. Fleet owners can further maximize the utility of the BYD T3 van with Emprise Global’s range of bonded glass options, ensuring that each van is customized to meet the specific needs of their operations while maintaining durability and visibility.

The BYD T3 van is designed with flexible charging solutions, featuring an 8-hour recharge time using a 6.6kW AC onboard charger and a rapid 1.3-hour recharge through a 40kW DC charger. This adaptability makes the van suitable for a wide range of business needs. Paired with Emprise Global's industry-leading bonded sliding and fixed windows, the BYD T3 van becomes an even more valuable asset, offering enhanced airflow, visibility, and an overall upgraded user experience for businesses.

In terms of dimensions, the BYD T3 van measures 4460mm in length, 1720mm in width, and 1875mm in height, with a spacious 3.8 cubic meter load volume and a payload capacity of around 800kg. These specs make it an ideal choice for small to medium deliveries. To further optimize the vehicle for fleet use, Emprise Global offers their bonded fixed and sliding windows, ensuring the BYD T3 van can be customized for a wide range of commercial applications, from deliveries to specialized transport.

The safety features of the BYD T3 van are robust, meeting Australian Design Rules (ADR) requirements. While its ANCAP crash test rating is yet to be released, the van’s Blade battery design focuses on preventing thermal runaway, enhancing safety. Emprise Global’s bonded side glass windows meet stringent safety standards, providing additional protection while maintaining the aesthetic and functional appeal of the BYD T3 van.

In addition to its eco-friendly design and safety features, the BYD T3 van presents significant cost savings for fleet operators. Nexport estimates that businesses could save up to $4,700 annually on fuel costs, along with $2,800 in reduced maintenance costs. By incorporating Emprise Global's bonded glass solutions, businesses can further boost the functionality of the van, ensuring it meets both performance and operational needs at a fraction of the cost of traditional vehicles.

In conclusion, the BYD T3 van offers a sustainable, cost-effective, and versatile option for businesses looking to upgrade their fleet. With Emprise Global leading the way as Australia’s premier supplier of bonded fixed and sliding windows, the BYD T3 van becomes an even more attractive proposition for fleet owners, offering both enhanced functionality and long-term reliability.
