BYD released their E6 prototype yesterday, complete with an AWD electric setup under the hood.

The most interesting thing, is the All Wheel Drive (AWD) system that BYD have set up using an electric motor, certainly not impossible, but something that hasn’t been tried on a production scale. Is this another first for BYD?

The design on the other hand, seems to be a mash up of a JDM Honda Oddyssey and a Range Rover rear end. Interesting, but somehow it works to our tastes.
