This is the 2026 BYD UAE buying guide: every model on sale now, from the AED 74,900 Qin Plus to the AED 199,900 Han, with prices, powertrains and where to buy.
The range has grown faster than the dealer network’s ability to explain it. In mid-2025 BYD sold two cars here; DriveArabia now lists twelve, split between four fully electric models and eight plug-in hybrids. Supply is scaling up, with a record single shipment of 6,068 BYD EVs bound for Khor Fakkan this month.
Distribution sits with Al-Futtaim Electric Mobility Company, part of the Al-Futtaim group, which runs the official site and showrooms. Earlier coverage here named Al Yousuf Motors as the distributor; the current record points to Al-Futtaim. If you are weighing other Chinese brands, our Jetour UAE guide covers that market.

The Leopard 8, Leopard 5 and Datang are not on the official UAE price list. None of the three appears on DriveArabia’s BYD page or the distributor’s site; the Leopard 8 shows up on UAE classifieds only as used or parallel-import examples. The Datang, the 950 km flagship we covered at launch, has no UAE pricing.
BYD Qin Plus price in the UAE
Qin Plus. The cheapest BYD and the cheapest plug-in car in the country: a midsize plug-in hybrid sedan with a 1.5-litre turbo, 177 hp and 15.6 km/L. One trim at AED 74,900, which is AED 2,000 under a base Corolla, with a plug the Corolla does not offer.
BYD Seal 6 price in the UAE
Seal 6. A compact plug-in hybrid sedan on BYD’s DM-i system: 241 hp, 16.9 km/L and 1,100 km of combined range. The petrol engine exists so that figure stays a figure. Two trims from AED 87,900; the Premium runs AED 95,900.
BYD Sealion 5 price in the UAE
Sealion 5. The compact plug-in hybrid SUV, and the closest thing to a normal family car: 210 hp, an 18.3 kWh battery, 710 km of combined range and 14.5 km/L. Two trims from AED 89,900, about AED 16,000 under the RAV-4’s opening price.
BYD Seal 7 price in the UAE
Seal 7. A midsize hybrid sedan aimed at the Camry’s customers: 136 hp and 16.1 km/L. Two trims from AED 109,900, about AED 13,000 under a base Camry, with a fuel economy claim the Camry cannot match.
BYD Song Plus price in the UAE
Song Plus. The most popular BYD in the UAE, per DriveArabia: a compact plug-in hybrid SUV with 319 hp and 14.5 km/L. Two trims; the Design opens at AED 119,900 and the Premium 4WD runs about AED 25,000 more.
BYD Seal price in the UAE
Seal. The fully electric sedan of the range: an 82.5 kWh battery, up to 570 km of range and 308 hp in the base car. Three trims, AED 149,900 to AED 204,900; the Performance AWD does 0–100 km/h in 3.8 seconds.
BYD Atto 3 price in the UAE
Atto 3. The compact electric SUV that opened this range in the UAE: a 60.5 kWh Blade Battery, 201 hp and 310 Nm. One trim at AED 149,900, level with the Seal.
BYD Ti 7 price in the UAE
Ti 7. The newest BYD here, a mid-size plug-in hybrid SUV launched in June 2026: a 1.5-litre turbo, 483 hp, five seats and a 1,300 km combined range. Two trims from AED 156,900; the Performance sits at AED 169,900. At 1,300 km, the fuel gauge is mostly a formality.
BYD Atto 8 price in the UAE
Atto 8. The three-row plug-in hybrid SUV of the range, for families that need seven seats and up to 728 km between fills: 275 hp in the Premium, 11.8 km/L. Two trims from AED 159,900 up to AED 184,900.
BYD Shark 6 price in the UAE
Shark 6. The plug-in hybrid pickup, and the first of its kind when it launched in September 2025: a 1.5-litre turbo with dual electric motors, 430 hp and 12.7 km/L. One Premium trim at AED 165,000; the 5.7-second sprint to 100 km/h is not a figure pickup buyers usually see without a supercharger.
BYD Sealion 7 price in the UAE
Sealion 7. The electric SUV of the range, with coupe styling and an 82.5 kWh battery: 308 hp in the Premium, 523 hp in the Performance and roughly 480 km of WLTP range. Two trims from AED 172,900; the distributor’s own site lists it from AED 158,900.
BYD Han price in the UAE
Han. The flagship, and the most expensive BYD in the UAE: a premium electric sedan with an 85.4 kWh battery, 509 hp and all-wheel drive. Two trims from AED 199,900; the Platinum asks another AED 32,000.
Practical information: showrooms, warranty and test drives
All BYD sales and service in the UAE run through Al-Futtaim Electric Mobility Company. The official BYD UAE site carries the full range, offers and finance options, and test drives are booked online.
Showrooms include a brand centre on Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai Festival City and Festival Plaza, plus locations in Ajman, Al Ain, Fujairah and Ras Al Khaimah. Service centres include one at Dubai Investment Park; the toll-free line is 800 23293.
The warranty runs six years or 150,000 km, the battery eight years or 200,000 km, whichever comes first, per the official site. Floor prices in this guide follow DriveArabia’s UAE listings. The distributor’s site asks a little more on several models, and a little less on the Sealion 7, so check both before you negotiate.
The 2026 byd uae catalogue is twelve models across electric, plug-in hybrid and pickup, at prices that start under the mainstream competition. The range that had two entries in mid-2025 now covers most of the market, and the warranty covers the rest.
