BYD has introduced a new challenger to the Land Rover Defender with its plug-in hybrid Ti 7. Priced at £47,995, the new SUV gets a plug-in hybrid setup which combines a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine with an electric motor and battery for a total output of 402bhp and a resulting 0-60mph time of 4.5 seconds. Despite this performance, the Ti 7 will also manage a claimed electric-only range of up to 74 miles. A 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster behind the steering wheel relays all key information back to the driver, too. On the outside, the Ti 7 gets classic off-roader touches, including 20-inch alloy wheels with boxy wheelarch extensions, while slim headlights and a large front bumper section add to the car’s impactful appearance.
