BYD will be all over the roads next year.
馃嚚馃嚦 China's BYD just became the FIRST carmaker to break the 500 km/h barrier with a production car.
And it did it with an ELECTRIC vehicle.
The Yangwang U9 Xtreme hit an astonishing **503.17 km/h (312.65 mph)** on a closed highway in Abu Dhabi, with German racing driver Marc Basseng behind the wheel.
Nearly 3,000 horsepower. Four electric motors. And a new FIA-recognized speed record.
For decades, European supercar manufacturers dominated the race for outright speed.
Now a Chinese EV has crossed a barrier none of them managed to break.
