BYD Tang: Reviews, Price and Is It Worth It in 2026

The BYD Tang is a large, seven-seat electric SUV -- BYD's flagship SUV. The 2024 model received a new Dragon Face exterior design and an updated technical base. In Lithuania, the Tang is not yet sold through the official byd.lt -- for now, BYD is concentrating on more mass-market models in Europe. However, the Tang already appears on the lists of Lithuanian importers, and used examples can be found in EU markets, which makes it a great fit for WHEELSTREET's import direction.

WHEELSTREET offer: we can source and bring in a BYD Tang -- new straight from the manufacturer (China / Korea / UAE) on competitive terms, or a verified used one from the EU with a 120-point inspection. Leasing -- through 5 banks.

BYD Tang in brief: what you need to know

The Tang is one of the largest BYD models -- a seven-seat SUV with all-wheel drive and a Blade LFP battery. It is a car for those who need lots of seats and traction rather than a compact city EV.

Worth knowing: if you are also considering other BYD electric cars, compare it with the roomy compact BYD Atto 3 or the sporty sedan BYD Seal. You will find a general overview of the brand in the BYD cars in Lithuania guide.

5 reasons to BUY the BYD Tang

1. Genuine room for seven

The Tang offers seven seats with folding second- and third-row seats. Boot capacity changes depending on the configuration -- from around 235 l with all rows up to around 1,655 l with the seats folded. It is a practical large-family car for everyday life and weekend trips.

2. A safe and durable Blade LFP battery

The Tang uses BYD's Blade lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery -- a safer chemistry than NMC, with good cycle endurance and low degradation. LFP chemistry is considered one of the most stable in the event of damage, which matters in a family car of this size. Read more about the technology in the Blade battery section of the BYD guide.

3. Powerful AWD and good range

Two motors provide all-wheel drive and roughly 380 kW (about 517 HP) of combined power -- the Tang accelerates to 100 km/h in around 4.9 s, which is more than enough for most everyday needs. The 108.8 kWh battery delivers around 530 km of WLTP range, making the model suitable for longer trips too.

4. 5-star Euro NCAP safety

The 2024 updated Tang received the top 5-star Euro NCAP rating (adult protection 87%, child 87%, pedestrian 80%). In a family car that carries children, that level of safety is a serious argument.

5. Updated design and competitive value

The 2024 version received a new Dragon Face exterior design and a more modern cabin. BYD's vertical manufacturing often allows it to offer plenty of equipment and technology at a competitive price in the segment -- a large seven-seat electric SUV with such specifications often costs more attractively than some European equivalents.

5 reasons NOT to buy the BYD Tang

1. DC charging is more modest than its size would suggest

The maximum direct-current charging power reaches around 170 kW (sources differ slightly). For such a large battery this is adequate, but some competitors charge faster, so on long trips the top-up pauses can be a little longer.

2. The third seat row suits children more

As in most SUVs of this size, the third row is most comfortable for children or short trips. For adults on a long route it can feel cramped -- be sure to try out all three rows before buying.

3. Not yet officially sold in Lithuania

The Tang is not currently offered through the official byd.lt, so for this specific model there is even less official-showroom supply and local service support in Lithuania than for the more mass-market BYD models. The model is reachable through imports -- which is exactly where WHEELSTREET helps.

4. The service and parts network is still growing

The BYD service network in Lithuania is expanding, but in 2026 it is still at an early stage, and the Tang is not a mass-market model. That means it is worth checking parts availability and servicing in advance.

5. Large body and weight

The Tang is a large and heavy SUV. In the city this means more modest maneuverability in tight spots and higher consumption than a compact EV. If you do not need seven seats, a smaller BYD may be more practical and more economical.

BYD Tang reliability

The underlying reliability of BYD's electric drivetrain and Blade LFP battery is considered good -- LFP chemistry has low degradation, and BYD itself manufactures the batteries, motors and control electronics. The Tang is not a new model on the global market, but in Europe the 2024 updated version is still relatively fresh, so very long-term operating statistics under European conditions are still accumulating. As with any imported electric car, the most important thing is to check the specific example's history, battery state of health (SOH) and software version before buying.

WHEELSTREET guarantee: every BYD we bring in is checked under a 120-point program before delivery, including battery condition. For a used car, we recommend checking the history with our VIN decoder.

BYD Tang versions and range

Verdict: the main version relevant in Europe is the 2024 updated Tang Flagship with a 108.8 kWh battery, AWD and around 530 km of WLTP range. It is a model for those who prioritize room for seven and powerful all-wheel drive over compactness or the fastest possible charging.

How much does the BYD Tang cost?

We do not state a specific BYD Tang price in Lithuania publicly, because it depends on whether you choose a new car straight from the manufacturer or a used one from the EU, as well as on the trim, year and mileage. In general, a large seven-seat electric SUV with such specifications is often offered on more competitive terms than European equivalents of a similar size. We provide an exact offer with a figure for your chosen version individually.

What people say about the BYD Tang

Summarized opinion (widely known consensus, not individual reviews):

• Space and practicality -- the genuine seven-seat layout and flexible boot capacity from around 235 l to around 1,655 l are valued.
• Power and AWD -- the dual-motor all-wheel drive with roughly 517 HP provides confident acceleration and solid grip.
• Safety -- the 5-star Euro NCAP rating (2024) and the safe Blade LFP battery are often cited as strengths in a family car.
• Charging -- the biggest complaint relates to the DC charging power (around 170 kW), which could be faster for such a large battery.
• Size -- for some the large body feels bulky in the city, although on the highway and on trips it is rated positively.

• You need genuine seven seats and plenty of luggage space.

• You want a safe family electric car with a 5-star Euro NCAP rating.
