BYD recently launched a hardware upgrade package for the Yangwang U8 priced at RMB 1,399, which includes hardware and software upgrades, feature maintenance, and complimentary labor. The package enhances four core capabilities: - **Fixed-wheel rotation** enables the vehicle to pivot in place around a single wheel. - **Lateral parallel movement** (available exclusively on the Luxury trim) allows the vehicle to move sideways. - **Full-speed-range terrain-sensing torque control** optimizes precise torque distribution across five terrain modes. - **Emergency buoyancy mode** automatically activates when water fording becomes hazardous, aiding in vehicle extraction; this feature will be enabled via an upcoming OTA update. This upgrade further strengthens the Yangwang U8’s intelligent and safety performance in extreme driving scenarios.
