        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) \u2013 BYD\u2019s Ocean series of electric vehicles is\nreportedly set to gain a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV).<\/p>\n<p>Carnews China reported on Thursday (29 October), local time, that the\ntest vehicle had been spotted in China. It is believed to be a new Ocean\nseries model, with a front end resembling the Sealion 08 SUV and Seal 08\nsaloon.<\/p>\n<p>Spy photographs show the light- and dark-blue camouflage pattern\ncommonly used on BYD\u2019s latest test prototypes.<\/p>\n<p>At the front, visible sections of the bumper, wings and bonnet\nconfirm that the vehicle has split headlights and an elongated B-shaped\ndesign extending to the sides, where the daytime running lights are\npositioned.<\/p>\n<p>The model appears to round out the Sealion and Seal 08 line-up, which\nhave already launched in China.<\/p>\n<p>The vehicle is fitted with conventional door handles, in line with\nChina\u2019s latest vehicle safety regulations. Horizontal rails also\nindicate that it has electric sliding doors.<\/p>\n<p>The Ocean series MPV is expected to appeal to buyers seeking a\npractical vehicle for household use, particularly larger families, and\ncould build on the Xia (M9) model in BYD\u2019s Dynasty series.<\/p>\n<p>The vehicle is projected to start at 200,000 yuan (US$30,000) and may\nbe available as a fully electric vehicle (EV) or a plug-in hybrid\n(PHEV), with flash-charging capability.<\/p>",
