BYD Han: Your Complete Guide

The BYD Han is BYD Europe’s flagship executive sedan: luxury materials, 517 hp, 3.9 s 0–100 km/h, and 521 km WLTP from around €60,000. It undercuts German rivals by €15,000–25,000 while matching or exceeding equipment. The interior feels genuinely premium; the ride is comfortable rather than sporty.

For buyers who want executive presence without German pricing, the Han is worth a closer look. See our BYD Europe guide and Seal for context—the Seal is the more common choice; the Han targets a narrower, premium niche.
