As per the plan, the electric supercar YangWang U9 will be officially launched on February 25th.
Previously, in December 2023, YangWang applied for a sales license for this model. Currently, the company is keeping the pricing information confidential.
YangWang U9 is a model produced by FinDreams, a subsidiary of BYD – the largest electric vehicle brand in China.
YangWang U9 is developed on the new e4 platform. The car has dimensions of 4,966 x 2,029 x 1,295 (mm) and a wheelbase of 2,900 mm.
YangWang U9 has a sporty and aggressive design. The front of the car is impressive with many similarities to the McLaren Artura. The rear of the car features a large rear wing along with enlarged aerodynamic diffusers.
YangWang U9 has a minimalistic interior with basic amenities such as a 3-spoke steering wheel, integrated function buttons, dual control sticks, and three screens including two small screens in front of the driver and passenger seats and a unique-shaped screen on the central control panel.
YangWang U9 is powered by four electric motors, each with a power output of 322 horsepower, resulting in a total power of 1,287 horsepower.
BYD claims that YangWang U9 can reach a speed of 100 km/h in just 2 seconds and has a maximum speed of 300 km/h. The company also states that the car can travel up to 700 km on a single charge based on China’s test cycle, thanks to a 100 kWh battery pack.
In addition to its powerful engine, YangWang U9 is equipped with various special technologies, demonstrating the progress of the Chinese automotive industry. With a unique suspension system, the electric supercar can “jump” and lift all four wheels off the ground, even when only three wheels are functional.
Specifically, U9 uses a suspension system called “Disus-X,” which includes smart body control using shock absorbers (Disus-C) developed by BYD, hydraulic-based smart body control (Disus-P), and compressible air-based smart body control (Disus-A), along with control in vertical, horizontal, and straight movements. This feature is rarely used but very useful in case of issues with one wheel or tire.
