BYD cars: MPG and fuel economy by model
The EPA has rated 7 vehicles from BYD across 1 distinct model since 2012. The list below covers every BYD model with its combined MPG and estimated annual fuel cost, organised by model year so you can see how the lineup has evolved.
Below you will find every BYD model in the EPA dataset, split into a recent table for the last five model years and a longer table for the rest. Click any model and year to see the full breakdown, including city and highway MPG, tailpipe CO₂ emissions, and the engine and drivetrain specification.
BYD fuel economy snapshot
Across every BYD the EPA has ever rated, the most efficient is the 2020 BYD e6 at 72 combined MPG. That figure includes electric vehicles, which use MPGe rather than a true gallon of fuel.
For the 2020 model year, BYD's lineup averages 72 combined MPG across 1 model. The lineup is currently almost entirely electric.
Recent BYD models
Recent BYD models from the 2016 model year onward, sorted by year and model. Trims appear separately when the EPA rates them as distinct vehicles (for example, when an all-wheel-drive variant has its own MPG figures).
| Year | Model | Combined MPG | Annual fuel cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2020 | e6 | 72 MPG | $1,050 |
| 2018 | e6 | 72 MPG | $1,050 |
| 2017 | e6 | 72 MPG | $1,050 |
| 2016 | e6 | 72 MPG | $1,050 |
Older BYD models
Older BYD models, going back to 2012. The EPA's testing methodology has changed several times over the decades, so direct comparison between a 1980s rating and a modern one is not always meaningful. Use these figures to track the trend within a model rather than across eras.
| Year | Model | Combined MPG | Annual fuel cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2014 | e6 | 63 MPG | $1,200 |
| 2013 | e6 | 63 MPG | $1,200 |
| 2012 | e6 | 62 MPG | $1,200 |
