BEIJING: At Auto China 2026, BYD's Fangchengbao brand debuted its first new-energy personalised sedans – the "Formula S" series and production sports car concept – the "Formula X".
Since its introduction in 2023, Fangchengbao has seen strong sales of SUVs (sport utility vehicles) like the Bao 5 and Bao 8 (over 50,000 units per month by end-2025).
The "Formula S" series offers three versions: the three-box sedan "Formula S", the shooting brake "Formula S GT", and the larger three-box sedan "Formula SL".
All three models boast a large presence with a length exceeding five metres, a wheelbase of three metres, and a width of two metres.
Fangchengbao says the golden ratio body, combined with a low-slung and wide-body dynamic stance, exudes the poised stance of a cheetah.
The "Cheetah Eyes" headlights and "Infinity Ring" taillights make the Formula S series stand out in terms of design.
The "Formula S" and "Formula S GT" boast a front splitter, wide wheel arches, and a rear diffuser.
The "Formula SL" features clean, flowing side lines, a long and sharp profile, and has a horizontally integrated metal grille and an electric rear wing.
All three models are expected to launch in the third quarter of 2026.
The production sports car concept "Formula X" is said to be over 80% identical to the real car, and is in line with the sedan series.
It represents the ultimate totem of the "Formula" series in terms of aesthetics, performance and experience, and is expected to be launched in 2027.
