Fang Cheng Bao Debuts Formula Performance Line With 1,000-HP Electric Supercar
The move signals a push into premium performance EVs under BYD’s multi-brand strategy.
Overview
- Fang Cheng Bao, BYD’s SUV-focused brand, unveiled the Formula lineup at the 2026 Beijing Auto Show with a supercar and three low-slung EVs.
- The Formula X is an open-top electric supercar with a carbon-fiber body and monocage chassis, a tri-motor setup rated at 1,000 hp, and a market launch confirmed for 2027.
- The Formula S sedan, S GT hatchback with a shooting brake profile, and SL flagship share an 800V platform, tri-motor all-wheel drive with up to 1,000 hp, and BYD’s DiSus-M magnetic ride control.
- BYD said the high-performance models will reach Chinese roads in late 2026, with production for all four slated to begin by next year.
- The pivot positions Fang Cheng Bao to challenge cars like the Porsche Taycan and may extend BYD’s premium push alongside Denza and YangWang, though export plans are not yet stated.
