The F6 Dual Mode, the big brother of the F3 DM, is set to go on the market in 2009 as well. The engine for the F5 is expected to be BYD’s own offering, a 1.8l model.

    F5 looks like the current Corolla sedan, just as F3 looks like the previous Corolla sedan. Bit pathetic.

    I don’t see any similarity to any of Toyota’s car.Even if it is, it costs just a fraction of the price of Corolla’s. Stop being fussy about it. If the safety of the car is proven to be reliable and the car is value for money, I will definitely go book for it.

    China will always improve their product.When reliability is proven by China to the world,then what is the use of foreign brand?????????? Sorry to say when that day came.Japan,US and even Euro will become scrap metal cars just for display.

    I have always thinking about this. China used to be called a cheat previously when it comes to Olympics because many of their athletes. were found using drugs to win medals. They have taken the bitter pills and reformed. Look at how the athletes compete in today’s competition. I would think it will be the same of China’s product as well.

    Cheat in a sense of world benefit and human kind,not benefit from “u.s.”
