How long is the battery warranty for BYD Yuan Pro?
2 Answers
The battery warranty for BYD Yuan Pro is lifetime warranty. Yuan Pro vehicle warranty: The vehicle warranty period is 6 years or 150,000 kilometers (whichever comes first). The main components of the electric system are covered by an 8-year or 150,000-kilometer warranty, including the power motor, drive motor controller, DC assembly, and battery (excluding battery cell components), while the battery cells enjoy lifetime warranty. Yuan Pro warranty coverage: The warranty coverage is divided into four categories. Category four covers wear-and-tear parts with a warranty of 6 months or 10,000 kilometers, such as various filters, bulbs, tires, spark plugs, etc. Category three includes parts with usage wear but not easily damaged, with a warranty of 3 years or 60,000 kilometers, such as multimedia systems, shock absorbers, various belts, bushings/gaskets, and bearings.
Last time I went for a test drive of the BYD Yuan Pro, I specifically asked the salesperson about the battery warranty. He said the standard policy is 8 years or 150,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. This is quite generous, as electric vehicle batteries are prone to aging, and BYD's commitment covers most of the usage period, eliminating worries about early replacement costs. Having driven an electric car for several years myself, I deeply understand: if the battery capacity drops below 70% during the warranty period, the manufacturer will replace it for free, but regular maintenance is necessary, such as checking the cooling system at authorized shops to avoid issues with warranty claims due to human damage. I recommend carefully reviewing the contract terms when buying a car, not just relying on verbal promises, to ensure peace of mind. Electric vehicles have low maintenance costs, but the battery is key. BYD's policy indeed makes car buying more reassuring, especially for urban commuters who can save a lot of hassle.
