Converted price in China is nice to see but it would make sense to compare it to local prices of cars it is competing with, so we can guess just how cheaper or more expensive it aims to be compared to those cars, if it ever is exported globally. By itself prices for stuff in China are typically much, much lower than in other parts of the world, so saying "this luxury sedan competes with Tesla Model S" while showing a price that looks roughly half of Tesla Model S... it does not help understanding how much this car would cost if it was exported globally. If you named Tesla Model S price right there, it would help understand whether BYD aims to undercut Tesla or aims at selling a longer range car for more money.

Omg, Ford Mondeo / Fusion reloaded.
