I booked on 25th Oct with January delivery.
I know the location of Islamabad dealership. The interior work is going on but I don't when they will open.

Where is the location of Islamabad dealership, just curious.

[ifadey]

BYD has not disclosed the location of any dealership yet. It was discovered by luck by some BYD WhatsApp group member since he lives nearby.

There used to be a Peugeot dealership (Peugeot Expressway) on expressway near Total petrol pump. That dealership was closed and now that location is taken by BYD. The renovation work is going on. I also confirmed from the staff working there and found it's in fact BYD dealership.

This is the location

Does any one know what is current delivery month if we book now. if anyone booked recently can shed some light .

PS. i think we need dedicated thread + forum category for BYD

@AkbarGr8 bhai also booked last month and got March delivery month. I think delivery month must have gone to April now.

Yes you are right, let me create BYD owners thread here on this forum.

I imported a 7kw charger from China since I'm not getting the extra fast charger. $235 landed

[mgalaxy3]

Aliexpress?

Any extra customs and shipping cost?

[AkbarGr8]

Yes. $205 shipped ex china and $235 final landed cost after customs payment (6600 pkr)

[mgalaxy3]

Nice .. was the shipping free? Or any extra added to items price.
I’m a bit hesitant ordering items over $200 from there but if it’s reliable I’ll do it.

[AkbarGr8]

Shipping was not free but after discounts it was minimal. I think the charger itself was $180 or $185 by itself.

[om26er]

Please share your review of that charger once you have the car. I called BYD and they apparently say it will cost 300k if bought from them

[AkbarGr8]

Will do!

[faakhir19]

Anyone who received the delivery of BYD?

[AkbarGr8]

None.

[ifadey]

Anyone who received the delivery of BYD?

Not yet.
I suggest we discuss BYD related things in its thread
