Yes, the BYD Qin PLUS EV is one of the best models to export if your priority is volume and price accessibility rather than flagship positioning. It is a compact electric sedan built specifically to compete on value, and it consistently ranks among BYD's best-selling models domestically for exactly that reason.
What the Qin PLUS EV is and who it suits
The Qin PLUS EV is a compact electric sedan positioned as BYD's volume, value-focused offering below the Seal. It suits importers targeting mainstream private buyers on a tighter budget, ride-hailing and taxi fleet operators who need low running costs and high unit counts, and dealers who want a high-turnover SKU to anchor a broader BYD offering.
Battery, range and drivetrain
The Qin PLUS EV is built around a 71.8 kWh Blade Battery pack, delivering a CLTC-rated range of up to 600 km — a genuinely long range for a vehicle at this price point. It uses a front-wheel-drive single-motor layout, which keeps the vehicle efficient, simple to maintain, and priced well below BYD's mid-size and flagship sedans.
Trims and factory pricing
The Qin PLUS EV is offered in three export trims:
- Flying — the entry trim, focused on core value and range
- Champion — the mid trim with additional equipment
- Glory — the top trim with the fullest feature set
Factory pricing ranges from ¥99,800 to ¥139,800 — the lowest starting price of any sedan in this lineup. Converted to an indicative FOB price (factory price ÷ 7.2), that's roughly $13,861 to $19,417 per unit before freight, insurance, duty, VAT and clearance.
Estimating your landed cost
Start from the FOB price and add a fixed $1,450 international freight charge, insurance at 1.1% of FOB value, your destination country's import duty rate applied to CIF value, VAT at your local rate applied to CIF plus duty, and a fixed $650 clearance fee. Because the fixed freight and clearance fees represent a larger proportion of the total cost on a lower-priced vehicle like the Qin PLUS EV, ordering in volume against the 8-unit MOQ is the most efficient way to manage per-unit landed cost.
Colors, MOQ and lead time
The Qin PLUS EV is available in three exterior colors for export: Cosmos Black, Skiing White, and Parker Blue. There is no minimum order quantity, with a production and export lead time of 30 days. Both left-hand-drive and right-hand-drive builds are available; confirm the configuration your market requires.
Warranty coverage
Every new Qin PLUS EV carries BYD's standard new-energy vehicle warranty: 6 years or 150,000 km on the vehicle, and 8 years or 150,000 km on the Blade Battery pack. Offering the same battery warranty as BYD's flagship models is a strong point of differentiation versus other budget-segment EVs, many of which offer shorter battery coverage.
Why the Qin PLUS EV is a natural entry-level anchor
With a sub-¥100,000 starting factory price and 600 km of CLTC range, the Qin PLUS EV lets importers offer a genuinely long-range EV to price-sensitive buyers without compromising on BYD's core Blade Battery safety and warranty story. It is typically the highest-volume, fastest-moving SKU in a mixed container order.
