The BYD Tang L (Chinese: 比亚迪唐L) is a mid-size SUV manufactured by BYD Auto since 2025. Available with battery electric (EV) and plug-in hybrid (DM-i) powertrains, it is part of the BYD Tang series.

Overview

The Tang L was officially unveiled in China on 16 January 2025, and was later launched on 9 April 2025. It is positioned higher than the existing BYD Tang and as BYD’s largest SUV. Previous Tang models continue to be offered at a lower price.

Design

The exterior of the Tang L adopts the series’ Loong Face (formerly Dragon Face) design language inspired by Chinese heritage. There are dragon whisker-like air intakes and split headlights that are connected to the chrome-plated trim on the front fascia, while the taillights on the rear fascia are inspired by traditional bamboo weaving techniques.

The interior of the Tang L has a similar design to the Han L and has a dual-colour theme. There is a 15.6-inch rotatable touchscreen infotainment system, an augmented reality heads-up display, four-spoke flat-bottom design steering wheel, full digital driver’s instrument panel, the shift-by-wire gear lever used for the automatic transmission mounted on the steering wheel column and the physical buttons retained in the armrest area. Other interior features are ambient lighting, bamboo wood accents, dual wireless charging pads, Dynaudio sound system, an integrated fragrance dispenser, an onboard refrigerator and a panoramic sunroof.

The Tang L has a boot space of 675 L (23.8 cu ft) and expands to 1,960 L (69 cu ft) when the second and third row seats are folded down. The battery electric model also has a frunk storage area. The vehicle has a 2+3+2 seven-seat layout.

Safety

The Tang L features God’s Eye C (DiPilot 300) intelligent driving assistance system incorporates the DiLink 150 intelligent cockpit system and a roof-mounted Lidar on higher trim levels.

Battery electric variants sit on BYD’s super e platform a 945 V architecture with redesigned blade batteries to allow faster ion transfer in the electrolyte and less resistance through the diaphragm, resulting in a peak maximum 10C charging rate. The EV version is able to charge from 1070% within 6 minutes.
