BYD has confirmed that its first seven-seat car for the UK will be the Ti7, a large plug-in hybrid SUV with Land Rover firmly in its sights.
On paper, the Ti7 looks like a rival for the Land Rover Discovery, thanks to its three rows of seats, big family-friendly body and promise of plenty of room inside. But just look at it and the target becomes even clearer. With its bluff nose, upright stance, chunky wheel arches and square-shouldered shape, this feels more like BYD’s answer to the newer, bigger-selling Land Rover Defender.
